Answer: 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Set them equal to each other since they're both equal to y
3x-5=.5x +5
add 5 to both sides
3x=.5x+10
subtract .5x from both sides
2.5x=10
divide both sides by 2.5
x= 4
Answer:
80
first, put in (5x-4) for the x in g(x).
g(f(x))=(5x-4)^2 -1
now, FOIL and simplify.
25x^2-40x+16-1
25x^2-40x+15
now, plug in -1 for x.
25(-1)^2-40(-1)+15
25+40+15
17². + 144²=x²
289 + 20736=x²
x²=21025
x =√21025
x=145
145 miles apart
x=16
y=-6
