Corrected Question

If f(x) = -3x+4 and g(x) = 2, solve for the value of x for which f(x) = g(x) is true.

Answer:


x=(2)/(3)

Explanation:

Given the functions:

  • f(x) = -3x+4
  • g(x) = 2

When f(x)=g(x), we have:

-3x+4=2

Collect like terms by subtracting 4 from both sides

-3x+4-4=2-4

-3x=-2

Divide both sides by -3 to solve for x.


(-3x)/(-3)=(-2)/(-3)\\ x=(2)/(3)\\$Therefore, $f((2)/(3))=g((2)/(3))

We conclude therefore that at
x=(2)/(3) , the values of f(x) and g(x) are equal.
