Answer:
D. Zero
Step-by-step explanation:
A solution is formed when the lines intersect at a
point. The coordinates will then be the solution.
In the diagram shown, the line and curve does not intersect at all so there is no solution to the curve.
Answer:
(1, 5)
Step-by-step explanation:
The solution to the system of equations is the point of intersection of the two lines. From inspection of the graph, the point of intersection is at (1, 5).
<u>Proof</u>
The solution to a system of equations is the point at which the two lines meet.
⇒ g(x) = f(x)
⇒ 3x + 2 = |x - 4| + 2
⇒ 3x = |x - 4|
⇒ 3x = x - 4 and 3x = -(x - 4)
⇒ 3x = x - 4
⇒ 2x = -4
⇒ x = -2
Inputting x = -2 into the 2 equations:
⇒ g(-2) = 3 · -2 + 2 = -4
⇒ f(-2) = |-2 - 4| + 2 = 8
Therefore, as the y-values are different, x = -2 is NOT a solution
⇒ 3x = -(x - 4)
⇒ 3x = 4 - x
⇒ 4x = 4
⇒ x = 1
Inputting x = 1 into the 2 equations:
⇒ g(1) = 3 · 1 + 2 = 5
⇒ f(1) = |1 - 4| + 2 = 5
Therefore, as the y-values are the same, x = 1 IS a solution
and the solution is (1, 5)

Answer:
f(x) = -4x^2 +48x -129
Step-by-step explanation:
It usually works well to compute the square first. That is, simplify according to the order of operations.
f(x) = -4(x^2 -12x +36) +15
f(x) = -4x^2 +48x -144 +15
f(x) = -4x^2 +48x -129
The third one
U solve from left to right and when two negatives are next to each other it turns to a plus.
