Question

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

Answer 1

The answer is -9

Explanation:

First we have to find the value for g(8) so that we can plug its solution into f(x).

So...

`(1)/(8)`(8) + 5

1 + 5

6

So now we plug in 6 into f(x) since 6 was our solution to g(x)

3 - 2(6)

3 - 12

-9
