Answer:

X=5

Explanation:

f(1)= -1^2+4(1)+12=15

f(2)= -2^2+4(2)+12=16

f(3)= -3^2+4(3)+12=15

f(4)= -4^2+4(4)+12=12

f(5)= -5^2+4(5)+12=7

g(1)=1+2=3

g(2)=2+2=4

g(3)=3+2=5

g(4)=4+2=6

g(5)=5+2=7

so g(5)=f(5)= X=5

Answer:

Explanation:

You're suppose to plug in the values 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 into f(x) and g(x) to find where they're equal to find the solution to f(x) = g(x) (when the column values are equal).

So for example

f(1) = -(1)^2 + 4(1) + 12

f(1) = -1 + 4 + 12

f(1) = 15

g(1) = 1 + 2

g(1) = 3

put these two values in the table for f(1) and g(1)

f(2) = -(2)^2 + 4(2) + 12

f(2) = -4 + 8 + 12

f(2) = 16

g(2) = 2 + 2

g(2) = 4

f(3) = -(3)^2 + 4(3) + 12

f(3) = -9 + 12 + 12

f(3) = 15

g(3) = 3 + 2

g(3) = 5

f(4) = -(4)^2 + 4(4) + 12

f(4) = -16 + 16 + 12

f(4) = 12

g(4) = 4 + 2

g(4) = 6

f(5) = -(5)^2 + 4(5) + 12

f(5) = -25 + 20 + 12

f(5) = 7

g(5) = 5 + 2

g(5) = 7

f(5) = g(5) so the solution is when x=5

f(6) = -(6)^2 + 4(6) + 12

f(6) = -36 + 24 + 12

f(6) = 0

g(6) = 6 + 2

g(6) = 8
