Explanation please help
determine the intersection of this two functions.
Graph both, see where they cross. Check by setting them equal to each other and solving for x.
i believe t could be A which is -6 whch i say because of the negative and what carries the 5
but im not sure at all am i right or wrong or even on the path
You could set up a system of equation and solve for x \[5x - 45 = -3/2x + 7 \]
I think that you are supposed to graph the two lines, and write down the intersection. They are in slope-interecept form (y=mx+b), y is equal to f(x) and g(x), m is the slope of the line, and b is the y intercept. Again, I am not sure that this is the correct way to do this.
well what is the way you'll do it
well, you can graph the two lines and find the point where they both intersects or you could do it algebraically.
well im not getting any answer for this problem
since f(x) = g(x) f(x) = 5x -45 g(x) = -3/2x + 7 then, 5x - 45 = -3/2x + 7 combine like terms and you get 5x + 3/2x = 7 + 45 simplfy 13/2x = 52 divide both sides to isolate x.
you should get a whole number
which is 6.5 the first one
A.6
If you are graphing, you should have f(x) as a positive line going through -45 on the y-axis and inclining by going up five and one to the right, and g(x) as a negative line going through 7 on the y-axis and decling by going three down and two to the right. Continue the lines until they intersect, then see where on the x-axis that is. I'm sorry if this is confusing, you might find it easier to do it @coolsday 's way.
it should be 8
because you have 13/2x = 52 divide both sides by 13/2 to isolate x therefore, x = (52)/(13/2) or 52 x 2/13
oh i se all i did was the division i didn't do the rest like multiply and try out the answer choices
