Answer:
g(f(x)) = -6x+6.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that,
f(x) = -3x + 2 and g(x) = 2x – 5
We need to find g(f(x)).
Put it into g(x).
g(f(x)) = 2(-3x + 2)+2
= -6x+4+2
=-6x+6
Hence, the value of g(f(x)) is -6x+6.
Answer:
x = -
, x = 
Step-by-step explanation:
The absolute value function always gives a positive value, however, the expression inside can be positive or negative, that is
- 3x + 16 = 18 or -(- 3x + 16) = 18
Solving
- 3x + 16 = 18 ( subtract 16 from both sides )
- 3x = 2 ( divide both sides by - 3 )
x = - 
or
-(- 3x + 16) = 18
3x - 16 = 18 ( add 16 to both sides )
3x = 34 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x = 
As a check
Substitute these values into the left side of the equation and if equal to the right side then they are the solutions.
| - 3(-
) + 16 | = | 2 + 16 | = | 18 | = 18 ← True
| - 3(
) + 16 | = | - 34 + 16 | = | - 18 | = 18 ← True
Thus x = -
and x =
are the solutions
You need to factor the numerator and denominator...
(2x^2+4x-2x-4)/(2x^2-2x-2x+2)
(2x(x+2)-2(x+2))/(2x(x-1)-2(x-1))
((2x-2)(x+2))/((2x-2)(x-1)) so the (2x-2)s cancel out leaving
(x+2)/(x-1)
