Given the following functions f(x) and g(x), solve f over g(−3) and select the correct answer below: f(x) = 6x + 8 g(x) = x − 2 −2 −negative one half one half 2

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

(f/g)(-3) = f(-3)/g(-3)

OpenStudy (janu16):

So first you solve g

OpenStudy (help_people):

ok how would i do that ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No, there are many ways. Simply write f(x)/g(x) and simplify, after you can plug in the 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

But for your case, you probably will just want to stick to a more understandable way. So I would just plug in 3 for x and evaluate!

OpenStudy (janu16):

So dont you start with g like swap x with 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[(6x+8)/(x-2)\]

OpenStudy (help_people):

? can you show me but do not do all the steps ?

OpenStudy (help_people):

ty prizzi!!!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Then swap x for 3 and solve!

OpenStudy (help_people):

ok

OpenStudy (janu16):

You are doing it differently than what i do. Laters

OpenStudy (help_people):

i got 26

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So it would become... \[(6(3)+8)/(3-2)\]

OpenStudy (help_people):

oh ok

OpenStudy (janu16):

Its -3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No, its 26!

OpenStudy (janu16):

No the 3 is negative

OpenStudy (anonymous):

your right!

OpenStudy (help_people):

ummm none of those are my answer choose :(

OpenStudy (janu16):

Told you

OpenStudy (help_people):

@Prizzi @Janu16 -3 and 26 is not one for the answer so ....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok, swap the x with -3, sorry didnt see the (-)

OpenStudy (janu16):

No the 3 you swaped is -3

OpenStudy (janu16):

Your not getting me

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So you should get 2

OpenStudy (help_people):

i got 2 @Prizzi @Janu16

OpenStudy (anonymous):

your correct!

OpenStudy (help_people):
