Answer:

$\begin{cases}3x+12&\text{if }x>-4\\0&\text{if }x=-4\\-3x-12&\text{if }x$

Step-by-step explanation:

The absolute value function negates its argument when its argument is negative. The expression 3x+12 will be negative when ...

3x +12 < 0

x +4 < 0

x < -4 . . . . . makes the absolute value function change its argument's sign

Using this fact, we can divide the domain into intervals below -4, at -4, and above -4. The above answer shows the function value in each domain interval.

List the steps that should be used to solve the equation f(x) = g(x) by graphing when f(x) = (1/2)² - 3 and g(x) = 3x + 5?

value of x is: $x=\frac{-31}{12}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the equation f(x)=g(x)

where $f(x)=(\frac{1}{2})^2-3$

and $g(x) = 3x + 5$

Solving to find f(x)=g(x)

Putting values of f(x) and g(x)

$f(x)=g(x)\\(\frac{1}{2})^2-3=3x + 5\\\frac{1}{4}-3=3x + 5\\Subtarct\,\,5\,\,on\,\,both\,\,sides:\\\frac{1}{4}-3-5=3x + 5-5\\\frac{1}{4}-8=3x\\Taking\,\,LCm\,\,on\,\,left\,\,side\\\frac{1-8*4}{4}=3x\\\frac{-31}{4}=3x\\Divide\,\,both\,\,sides\,\,by\,\,3\\x=\frac{-31}{4*3}\\x=\frac{-31}{12}$
