-5 = 3/4x - 2
-5 + 2 = 3/4x
-3 = 3/4x
-3 / (3/4) = x
-3 * 4/3 = x
-12/3 = x
-4 = x <==
<h3>
Answer: C) 3</h3>
=========================================================
Explanation:
f(x) is the outer function, so the final output -8 corresponds to f(x)
We see that f(-4) = -8 in the first column of the table. I'm starting with the output and working my way backward to get the input. So we started with -8 and worked back to -4.
Then we move to the g(x) function to follow the same pattern: start with the output and move to the input. We start at -4 in the g(x) bubble and move to 3 in the x bubble.
In short, g(3) = -4
So,
f(g(x)) = f(g(3)) = f(-4) = -8
We see that x = 3 leads to f(g(x)) = -8
Find the slope using the formula [ y2-y1/x2-x1 ].
-9-(-12)/-15-(-24)
3/9
1/3
Find the y-intercept using the formula [ y = mx + b ].
y = 1/3x + b
-12 = 1/3(-24) + b
-12 = -8 + b
-4 = b
Use (18, 2) to see if the line passes through it
y = 1/3x - 4
2 = 1/3(18) - 4
2 = 6 - 4
2 = 2 TRUE
Thus, the line does pass through (18, 2).
Best of Luck!
Choice C, because
