Final answer:

To find the values for f(x) and g(x), one must substitute the value of x into each function or solve equations using these functions. If solving for x when f(x) equals g(x), set the two functions equal and use algebraic methods, potentially the quadratic formula, to solve for x.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the values for the functions f(x)=2x-1 and g(x)=2x², we need to apply the given functions to specific values of x or solve equations involving them. If the typo in the g(x) definition is ignored, and we assume it's meant to be g(x)=2x², then for any specific value of x, you would substitute that value into each function to find the corresponding output. For example, if x=3, then f(3)=2(3)-1=5, and g(3)=2(3²)=2(9)=18.

If you need to solve an equation such as f(x) = g(x), you would set the expressions equal to one another and solve for x. Assuming it's a simple equation like 2x-1 = 2x², you could rearrange to form a quadratic equation and solve it using the quadratic formula:

№x² + №x - ½ = 0

However, this example is not from the provided information and assumes we are dealing with a typical quadratic equation solving scenario.
