Answer:

- \frac{3}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope (gradient) and c the y- intercept )

Given

2y = - 3x - 8 ( divide all terms by 2 )

y = - \frac{3}{2} x - 4 ← in slope- intercept form

with gradient = - \frac{3}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the table:

Month              f(x) = Number of imports    g(x) = Number of exports

January (1)                3                                                1

February (2)             4                                                3

March (3)                  5                                                5

April (4)                     6                                                7

From the table, it is clear that:

Number of imports = number of month + 2

so

also

Number of exports  = 2(number of month) + 1

so

Therefore, the number of imports equals the number of months plus one. i.e., which is a linear function.

If we compare it with the slope-intercept form of the line

Then,

slope = m = 1

y-intercept = 2

Also number of exports equals is also a linear function.

i.e.  

Here,

slope = m = 2

y-intercept = -1

If f(x)= 3x-1 and g(x)=2x-3, for which value of x does g(x)= f(2)
gregori [183]

Answer:

g(4)=f(2)

Step-by-step explanation:

f(2)=3(2)-1

f(2)=6-1

f(2)=5


We then get:

g(x)=f(2)

subsitute 5 for f(2)

g(x)=5

now solve

5=2x-3

add 3

8=2x

divide 2

4=x

so the answer is x=4 or  

g(4)=f(2)
