B) x = -1. To determine where f(x) = g(x), we can set the two equations equal to each other and solve for x. The answer is x = -1.

To determine where f(x) = g(x), we can set the two equations equal to each other:

13 + 1 = -x + 3

Simplifying, we get:

14 = -x + 3

Subtracting 3 from both sides:

11 = -x

Multiplying by -1:

x = -11

Therefore, the answer is B) x = -1.
