Use the definition of absolute value,

|x| = \begin{cases} x & \text{if } x \ge 0 \\ -x & \text{if } x < 0 \end{cases}

If x - 1 ≥ 0, then |x - 1| = x - 1, and so

|x - 1| = 5x + 2

x - 1 = 5x + 2

4x = -3

x = -3/4

Otherwise, if x - 1 < 0, then |x - 1| = -(x - 1), which means

|x - 1| = 5x + 2

-x + 1 = 5x + 2

6x = -1

x = -1/6

Use the graphs of f and g to solve Exercises 87, 88, and 89.
Nadya [2.5K]

Answers and explanations:

87. The domain of added functions includes the restrictions of both. So the range of the added function in this question is [-4, 3]

88. When finding the domain of a divided function we do the same as adding, but with an extra rule: g can't equal zero. So for this question the domain is (-4, 3)

89. To graph f + g you add the y-values for each x-value. I added a picture to help explain this one!

Keshawn is asked to compare and contrast the domain and range for the two functions.
scoray [572]
For the function 5x, the range is the value of f(x) which is five times the x and the domain is the value of x which can be the ratio of f(x) and 5. For the second function which is g(x) = 5, the range is 5 all through out the graph while the domain is infinity.

What are the x and y intercepts of 3y=2x-6
sasho [114]
How to find the x intercept of 3y=2x-6: (when y is 0)

3(0) = 2x - 6

     0 = 2x - 6
   +6        + 6
-------------------------
     6 = 2x
  ------ -----
     2     2
      
     x = 3


How to find the y intercept of 3y=2x-6: (when x  is 0)

 3y = 2(0) - 6

 y = 0 - 6

  3y = -6
------  -----
   3      3

   y = -2

For f(x)= 3x+1 and g(x)= x^2-6, find (g/f)(x).

D. The exclusion is important because we cannot divide by zero. Apart from that we are simply looking at a function.
