@noseboy908  please help me

Gladly. So, look on your given graph, and tell me this: at what x values do the graphs of "f(x)" and "g(x)" intersect?

anonymous · Answer

they intersect at (-1,-10) and (5,11) right?

noseboy908 · Answer

Well, to be precise, the second x value should be slightly bigger. So, given your two points, what is your answer?

anonymous · Answer

(-4,1)??? Sorry I'm not very good at math

noseboy908 · Answer

Not to worry, just restate the x values of the points you found where the two graphs intersected. Be as precise as possible.

anonymous · Answer

sorry i hv no idea what it is?

noseboy908 · Answer

Restate the points you already gave me (from when you said "they intersect at (-1,-10) and (5,11) right?"

anonymous · Answer

yea look i dont mean 2 rush but i really need this answer.

anonymous · Answer

i think its the 2nd one tho.

noseboy908 · Answer

Just tell me this: given that an ordered pair is just "(x,y)", tell me the two x values from the points I just restated for you.

anonymous · Answer

-1, 5

noseboy908 · Answer

And given that it's actually just over 5, what possible answer has those two x values?

anonymous · Answer

1st one?

jdoe0001 · Answer

look at your choices, only 2 of them have a -1
x = -1, 5.4    <-----

x = -3, 4

x = -1, 2         <----

x = -10, 12 

    so which one do you think are the values for "x" ?

anonymous · Answer

1???

jdoe0001 · Answer
