If f(x) = 2x - 6 and g(x) = 3x + 9, find (f+g)(x)

valina [46]

Answer:

(f+g)(x) = 5x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 2x - 6 and g(x) = 3x + 9, find (f+g)(x)

(f+g)(x) = f + g = (2x - 6) + (3x + 9) = 5x + 3

(f+g)(x) = f + g = 5x + 3

So, y-intercept is (0,3) and x-intercept is (3/7,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given:

$y=-7x+3$

We need to find y-intercept and x-intercept

Finding y-intercept

To find y-intercept we put x =0

Solving:

$y=-7x+3\\y=-7(0)+3\\y=3$

So, y-intercept is (0,3)

Finding x-intercept

To find x-intercept we put y =0

Solving:

$y=-7x+3\\0=-7x+3\\-7x=-3\\x=-3/-7\\x=3/7$

So, x-intercept is (3/7,0)

So, y-intercept is (0,3) and x-intercept is (3/7,0)
