Let f(x) = 2x and g(x) = 2^x. Graph the functions on the same coordinate plane. What are the solutions to the equation f(x) = g(x) ? Enter your answers in the boxes. x = ______ or x = _________
the answer is 0
the x-coordinate of the solution is not 0 look at the point where the solution is, go straight down, and identify the corresponding x value take your time
I would recommend reviewing how to read a point on a graph
-4
find the point(s) where the blue line and the red line cross each other go straight down (do NOT go left or right) then identify the x value
-6 and 0
put your finger on the point where the red line and blue line cross each other move your finger straight down
|dw:1515690705629:dw|
|dw:1515690710724:dw|
|dw:1515690732599:dw|
1
|dw:1515690762502:dw|
good, x = 1 now repeat this process with the other point
|dw:1515690815578:dw|
x = 1 or x = 4
good, those are your two solutions.
correct ?
yes.
What is the solution to f(x) = g(x) ? Select each correct answer. x= −1 x = 0 x = 1 x = 2 x = 3 x = 4 x = 5
select each row of the table where f(x) and g(x) are equal please look slowly and carefully before making your answer spend at least 15 seconds on this
-1, 0, and 3
please try again
f(x) and g(x) have to be EQUAL
0 and 3
one more time. f(x) and g(x) must have the SAME number in the box
oh -3
good, so what x-values match with 0 and -3? look in the left column of the table
-1 and 0
|dw:1515691498844:dw|
|dw:1515691504395:dw|
0 and 2
good, so x = 0 and x = 2 are your solutions.

-1 and 3 correct me if i'm wrong
when you are looking for solutions you should be looking where the two lines cross each other.
|dw:1515691756769:dw|
|dw:1515691762767:dw|
4 and 2
x-values, not y-values
remember our rule before pick the point go straight down to the x-axis select the correct x value
3 and 2
|dw:1515692019697:dw|
then go straight down to the x-axis ( do not go left or right ) what is the x-value you touch?
2
please move your finger down to the x-axis
3
|dw:1515692116423:dw|
see how we moved DOWN not left or right?
now, we have moved down and we are touching the x-axis what x-value are we touching right now?
and 0
good
my computer acted up again
now we repeat the same process for the other x-value
|dw:1515692218349:dw|
3
put your finger on the point go straight DOWN and do NOT go left or right.
what x-value do you reach? please spend at least 15 seconds before you answer
0 and 4
step 1: put your finger on the point step 2: go down step 3: stop when you touch the x-axis
-1
oh there
good, so your answers are x = -1 and x = 0.
thank you so much for help and btw i know i seem much for trouble for you because see all the schools i've been to haven't been good schools and i barely knew math that much and a lot that's happened but i want to apologize for giving a hard time and not getting it right please forgive me because i wanted you to know that
it's fine, don't worry about it
