f ( x ) = 3x - 1

g ( x ) = 2x - 3

_____________________

g ( x ) = f ( 2 )

2x - 3 = 3(2) - 1

2x - 3 = 6 - 1

2x - 3 = 5

2x - 3 + 3 = 5 + 3

2x = 8

2x ÷ 2 = 8 ÷ 2

x = 4

Answer:

Both situations have the same rate of change

3 miles/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

The denarius was a unit of currency in ancient Rome. Suppose it costs the Roman government 10 denarii per day to support 4 legio

aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

The system cannot be solved by a unique cost for each soldier, because has infinite solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-------> the cost of a legionary per day

y-------> the cost of an archer per day

we know that

$4x+4y=10$ ------> equation A

$2x+2y=5$ ------> equation B

Multiply equation B by $2$ both sides

$2(2x+2y)=2*5$ -------> $4x+4y=10$

equation A and equation B is the same equation

therefore

This is a consistent dependent system

The system has infinite solutions
