the functions f and g are defined as follows
f(x)=5x-1 and g(x)=-4x^2-3
f(-6)=
g(5)=
simplify your answer as much as possible
i have the first answer which is -31
for the next part i keep coming up with 97 which is wrong
F(x) = 5x-1
F(-6) = 5*(-6) - 1 = -31.
g(x) = -4x^2 - 3
g(5)=-4*5^2 - 3 = -100 - 3=-100 + (-3) =
-103.
Don't worry, I'll help you find the correct answer with a touch of humor! Let's start with the second part:
To find g(5), we simply substitute x with 5 in the equation g(x) = -4x^2 - 3.
g(5) = -4(5)^2 - 3
= -4(25) - 3
= -100 - 3
= -103
Voila! The correct answer is not 97, but -103. It seems my calculations are as sharp as the edges of a banana peel! Keep in mind that humor sometimes has a way of slipping into your answers.
To find the value of f(-6), substitute -6 into the function f(x):
f(-6) = 5*(-6) - 1
= -30 - 1
= -31
To find the value of f(-6), we need to substitute -6 into the equation for f(x):
f(x) = 5x - 1
f(-6) = 5(-6) - 1 = -30 - 1 = -31
So, you are correct that f(-6) is equal to -31.
Now, let's find the value of g(5). We substitute 5 into the equation for g(x):
g(x) = -4x^2 - 3
g(5) = -4(5)^2 - 3 = -4(25) - 3 = -100 - 3 = -103
Therefore, the correct answer for g(5) is -103, not 97.
