Answer:

(x | x = 0.5 or x = 4.5}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation resolves to two:

2x -5 = 4

2x = 9 . . . . . . add 5

x = 9/2 = 4.5 . . . . divide by 2

and ...

2x -5 = -4

2x = 1 . . . . . . add 5

x = 1/2 = 0.5 . . . . divide by 2

Then the solution set is ...

(x | x = 0.5 or x = 4.5} . . . . . . matches the first choice

F(x) = x^2. What is g(x)?

MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

D. g(x)=(3x)^2

Step-by-step explanation:

For function g(x), it displays the point (1,9) as part of the function. If (x,y), then we can plug those into the available answers. Plug 1 in for each x value in the function and whichever one equals 9 will be your answer. This is only true for g(x)=(3x)^2.
