Answer:
Please check the explanation.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
a)
f(x) + g(x) = (2x - 1) + (2 - x)
= 2x -1 + 2 - x
= x + 1
b)
f(x) - g(x) = (2x - 1) - (2 - x)
= 2x - 1 - 2 + x
= 3x - 3
c)
g(-5) - f(-5)
Putting x = -5 in g(x) = 2 - x
g(x) = 2 - x
g(-5) = 2 - (-5) = 2+5 = 7
Putting x = -5 in f(x) = 2x - 1
f(x) = 2x - 1
f(-5) = 2(-5) - 1
= -10 - 1
= -11
Thus,
g(-5) - f(-5) = 7 - (-11) = 7+11 = 18
d)
f(x).g(x) = (2x - 1) (2 - x) = -2x² + 5x - 2
e)
f(g(x)) = f(2-x)
= 2(2-x)-1
= 4-2x-1
= 3-2x
Answer:
16.5
Step-by-step explanation:
x =
or x = - 
consider the factors of the product 6 × - 4 = - 24 which sum to the coefficient of the x- term ( + 5)
the factors are + 8 and - 3 ( split the middle term using these factors
6x² - 3x + 8x - 4 = 0 ( factor by grouping )
3x(2x - 1) + 4(2x - 1 ) ( take out common factor of (2x - 1) )
= (2x - 1)(3x + 4) = 0
equate each factor to zero and solve for x
2x - 1 = 0 ⇒ x = 
3x + 4 = 0 ⇒ x = -
