A complex fraction is a fraction of a fraction
Answer:
-3 is the value of k in g(x)=kf(x)
Step-by-step explanation:
Both functions cross nicely at x=-3 so I'm going to plug in -3 for x:
g(x)=kf(x)
g(-3)=kf(-3)
To solve this for k we will need to find the values for both g(-3) and f(-3).
g(-3) means we want the y that corresponds to x=-3 on the curve/line of g.
g(-3)=-3
f(-3) means we want the y that corresponds to x=-3 on the curve/line of f.
f(-3)=1
So our equation becomes:
g(-3)=kf(-3)
-3=k(1)
-3=k
So k=-3.
