B) x=−2

C) x=−1

D) x = 0

E)x = 1

F)x = 2

G)x = 3

Answer 1

x = -2

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer: x = -2 and x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution of an equality is the set of values of the unknown for which both members are equal. In this case, the values of x for which the two functions are equal.

The table shows three values of x for which the outputs of both f(x) and g(x) are equal. Those values of x are the solutions of the equality f(x) = g(x).

Such points are:

(-2,4) and (-1,2).

Realize that means that for x = -2 and x = -1, the values of both functions f(x) and g(x) are the same.

So, according to the table, x = -2, and x = -1 are solutions to f(x) = g(x)
