Based on the graph below, what is the solution of the equation f(x) = g(x)? graph of function f of x equals negative x plus 0.5 and graph of function g of x equals x squared plus 3 multiplied by x minus 4 x = −4 and x = 1 x = −5 and x = 0.9 x = −4 and x = 0.5 x = −5 and x = −0.5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (triciaal):

solution is when f(x) = g(x) set the functions equal and solve for x

OpenStudy (triciaal):

you have the graph just look where they cross and read off the x- values

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok but it crosses 2 times so I choose both times it crosses?

OpenStudy (triciaal):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think its D or B

OpenStudy (triciaal):

in addition to that look at the options

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I am going for D tho....

OpenStudy (triciaal):

look at the graph where do the lines cross

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-5 and a little before 1 so that is why anything would be 0.5 or 0.9

OpenStudy (triciaal):

read the x-axis

OpenStudy (triciaal):

a little before +1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes a little befroe +1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

*before

OpenStudy (triciaal):

so what is the correct solution

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x = −5 and x = −0.5?

OpenStudy (triciaal):

stop playing

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I am not playing ._.
