Let the number be a
6a - 20 = 3a + 4
Group like terms
6a - 3a = 20 + 4
3a = 24
divide through by 3
a = 8
Therefore the number is 8

Dovator [93]

Answer:

g(-5) = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find value of g(-5)

Looking at the graph in figure when g = -5, the value on the graph is -6 as it is highlighted with blue point.

So, g(-5) = -6
