Question

If f(x) = 3 - 2x and g(c) = 1 over x + 5, what is the value of F over G (8)?

a) -3/11
b) -3/13
c) -3/15
d) -3/17

Answer 1

The value of F over G (8) is -3/17.

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of F over G (8) can be found by substituting x = 8 into the functions f(x) and g(x) and then evaluating the expression f(x)/g(x).

Given f(x) = 3 - 2x and g(x) = 1/(x + 5), substituting x = 8:

f(8) = 3 - 2(8) = 3 - 16 = -13

g(8) = 1/(8 + 5) = 1/13

Therefore, F over G (8) = f(8)/g(8) = -13/(1/13) = -13 * 13/1 = -3/17. Therefore, F over G (8) = f(8)/g(8) = -13/(1/13) = -13 * 13/1 = -3/17.
