(05.03 LC)Determine the solution to f(x) = g(x) using the following system of equations: (5 points)f(x) = 5.5x β 13g(x) = β5x + 18.5 x = 1 x = 2 x = 3 x = 4
Question
Answer:
If g(x) is equal to f(x), then they are the same value. Put 5.5x - 13 in place of g(x) in the second equation.
5.5x - 13 = -5x + 18.5
Add 13 to both sides.
5.5x = -5x + 31.5
Add 5x to both sides.
10.5x = 31.5
Divide 10.5 on both sides.
x = 3
Hope this helps! :)
