For f(x) = 3x +1 and g(x) = x2 – 6, find (f- g)(x).

Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf (f-g)(x) = -{x}^{2} + 3x + 7}$

Given:

$\sf f(x) = 3x + 1 \\ \sf g(x) = {x}^{2} - 6$

To find:

$\sf (f - g)(x) = f(x) - g(x)$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sf \implies(f - g)x = f(x) - g(x) \\ \\ \sf \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = (3x + 1) - ( {x}^{2} - 6) \\ \\ \sf \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = (3x + 1) + (- {x}^{2} + 6) \\ \\ \sf \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = 3x + 1 - {x}^{2} + 6 \\ \\ \sf \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = - {x}^{2} + 3x + 1 + 6 \\ \\ \sf \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = -{x}^{2} + 3x + 7$

The graphs of f(x)=2x+4 and g(x)=10−4x intersect at (1, 6) . What is the solution of the equation 2x+4=10−4x ?

Gnoma [55]

Answer:

x=1 is the solution of the equation 2x+4=10−4x

Step-by-step explanation:

The graphs of f(x)=2x+4 and g(x)=10−4x intersect at (1, 6)

2x +4 = 10 - 4x

We need to solve for x by combining like terms

Add 4x on both sides

6x + 4= 10

Now subtract 4 on both sides

6x = 6

divide both sides by 6

x= 1

x=1 is the solution of the equation 2x+4=10−4x

Solve using elimination 5x+7y=9 <br> 2x-3y=-37

uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

x = -8

y = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 7y = 9

2x - 3y = -37

1.) First, multiply each side to match either y-values or x-values. (In this example, we'll use match x-values)

10x + 14y = 18 (multiplied by 2)

10x - 15y = -185 (multiplied by 5)

2.) Then, subtract the entirety of one equation to isolate the y-value.

10x + 14y = 18

-10x + 15y = 185

3.) Add and subtract values and divide to find y.

29y = 203

y = 7

4.) Plug-in y to solve for x into one equation, or repeat steps 1-3.

15x + 21y = 27

14x - 21y = -259

29x = -232

x = -8

Suppose a die is tossed 5 times. what is the probability of getting exactly 2 fours?

Tasya [4]

Answer:

the probability of getting exactly 2 fours is 0.16

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of obtaining a number that is four = ¹/₆

The probability of obtaining a non 4 number = 1 - ¹/₆ = ⁵/₆

The number of ways 2 fours can be arrange in five numbers = ⁵C₂ = 10 ways

If the die is tossed five times, the probability of the events is calculated as;

P = 10 x (¹/₆)² x (⁵/₆)³

P = 10 x (¹/₃₆) x (¹²⁵/₂₁₆)

P = 10 x 0.02778 x 0.5787

P = 0.16

Therefore, the probability of getting exactly 2 fours is 0.16
