g(x) = x + 4, f(x) = 10+x2, {−3,2}

g(x) = x + 4, f(x) = 10+x2, {−3,2}

g(x) = x + 4, f(x) = 10+x2, {−3,1}

g(x) = x + 4, f(x) = 10+x2, {−3,1}

g(x) = x + 4, f(x) = 10−x2, {1,6}

g(x) = x

To solve the equation \(10 - x^2 = x + 4\) by graphing, we can rearrange it to express two functions:

  1. Set one side of the equation as \(f(x)\): \[ f(x) = 10 - x^2 \]

  2. Set the other side of the equation as \(g(x)\): \[ g(x) = x + 4 \]

Now, we want to find the intersection points of the two functions \(f(x)\) and \(g(x)\). This can be done by finding where \(f(x) = g(x)\).

To find the solution set, we can solve for the points where these two functions intersect:

Setting the functions equal to each other:

\[ 10 - x^2 = x + 4 \]

Rearranging the equation:

\[ 10 - 4 = x + x^2 \] \[ 6 = x + x^2 \] \[ x^2 + x - 6 = 0 \]

Factoring the quadratic:

\[ (x - 2)(x + 3) = 0 \]

Finding the roots:

  1. \(x - 2 = 0 \Rightarrow x = 2\)
  2. \(x + 3 = 0 \Rightarrow x = -3\)

Conclusion:

The intersection points (solutions) of the original equation \(10 - x^2 = x + 4\) are:

  • \(x = 2\)
  • \(x = -3\)

Thus, the solution set is \({-3, 2}\).

Answer:

The correct response is: g(x) = x + 4, f(x) = 10 - x^2, {−3, 2}

What function should be graphed in order to solve the equation 9x−6 =−8

f(x) = 9x + 2
f(x) = 9x + 2

f(x) = 9x - 14
f(x) = 9x - 14

f(x) =17x - 6
f(x) =17x - 6

f(x) =x -6

To solve the equation \(9x - 6 = -8\) by graphing, we can rearrange the equation into the form of a function set equal to \(y\).

  1. Start with the original equation: \[ 9x - 6 = -8 \]

  2. Add 6 to both sides to isolate the \(x\) term: \[ 9x = -8 + 6 \] \[ 9x = -2 \]

  3. Divide both sides by 9: \[ x = -\frac{2}{9} \]

Now, to represent this equation as a function, we can rewrite it in function form:

Set the left-hand side equal to \(f(x)\): \[ f(x) = 9x - 6 \]

To find the solution, we can also set a constant function equal to the right-hand side:

\[ g(x) = -8 \]

Conclusion:

You should graph the function \(f(x) = 9x - 6\) and the horizontal line \(g(x) = -8\) to find their intersection point, which will indicate the solution to the equation.

Answer:

The correct response is: f(x) = 9x - 6

wrong

I apologize for the oversight. Let's carefully solve the equation \(9x - 6 = -8\) and identify the correct function to graph:

Starting from the equation:

\[ 9x - 6 = -8 \]

Rearranging the Equation:

  1. Add 6 to both sides: \[ 9x = -8 + 6 \] \[ 9x = -2 \]

  2. Divide both sides by 9: \[ x = -\frac{2}{9} \]

Functions to Graph:

To graph this equation, we can set one side equal to a function. The original equation can be manipulated in various forms:

  1. You can keep the left side as: \[ f(x) = 9x - 6 \] And set this equal to a constant: \[ g(x) = -8 \]

However, that was not what I was looking for based on your feedback. Let's express it to find a function only for the left-hand side equal to 0:

  • Rearranging the original equation gives us: \[ 9x - 6 + 8 = 0 \quad \Rightarrow \quad 9x + 2 = 0 \] Thus, we can define a function based on this: \[ f(x) = 9x + 2 \]

Conclusion:

The function you should graph in order to solve the equation \(9x - 6 = -8\) would then be:

f(x) = 9x + 2

Again, I'm sorry for the confusion, and thank you for your patience!

What is the solution to the equation 2x - 1 = 4x + 3?

To solve the equation \(2x - 1 = 4x + 3\), follow these steps:

  1. Get all terms involving \(x\) on one side: Subtract \(2x\) from both sides: \[ -1 = 4x - 2x + 3 \] This simplifies to: \[ -1 = 2x + 3 \]

  2. Isolate the \(x\) term: Subtract 3 from both sides: \[ -1 - 3 = 2x \] This simplifies to: \[ -4 = 2x \]

  3. Solve for \(x\): Divide both sides by 2: \[ x = -2 \]

Conclusion

The solution to the equation \(2x - 1 = 4x + 3\) is: \[ \boxed{-2} \]
