As you may already be familiar, these functions f(x) and g(x) are piecewise. They consist of multiple functions with different domains.
1. For #1, the given input is f(0). Since 0≤1, you should use the first equation to solve. f(0)=3(0)-1 ➞ f(0)=-1
2. Continue to evaluate the given input for the domains given. 1≤1, therefore f(1)=3(1)-1➞f(1)=2
3. 5>1, therefore f(5)=1-2(5)➞f(5)=-9
4. -4≤1; f(-4)=3(-4)-1➞f(-4)=-13
5. -3<0<1; g(0)=2
6. -3≤-3; g(-3)=3(-3)-1➞g(-3)=-10
7. 1≥1; g(1)=-3(1)➞g(1)=-3
8. 3≥1; g(3)=-3(3)➞g(3)=-9
9. -5≤-3; g(-5)=3(-5)-1➞g(-5)=-16
Hope this helps! Good luck!
Answer: C
Step-by-step explanation:
OK first change 3 3/4 to an improper fraction and that will give you 15/4. so you got that part right. Next, change the division sign to multiplication. then flip the 1/2 to 2/1. Then multiply 15 times 2 and that will give you 30. Then multiply 4 times 1 and that will give you 4. then you will have an answer of 30/4. Finally, since you a have a big number over a small number you divide 30 by 4 and that will give you 7 1/2. So it turns out that your little cheat sheet is wrong because when you check your answer you should go on Math-way to check it. Also, a little background about me is that I am in 8th grade and I am taking algebra 1 too.
All I can say is that your equation is wrong
