Question

If p(x) = 3x – 2and n (x) = 2x – 5, what is the value of (n/p) (1)?

Answer 1

Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

We want (n/p)(1).  We can obtain this by finding n(1) and p(1) and then dividing as indicated:

p(1) = 3(1) - 2 = 1

n(1) = 2(1) - 5 = -3

Then   (n/p) (1) = -3/1, or just -3
