Consider the functions f(x) and g(x) shown below. For which of the following values of x does f(x) does not equal g(x)? a) 0
b) -3/2
c) 3
d)-3

==========================================================

Explanation:

When f(x) = g(x) is true, this is where the two graphs intersect. So we have three solutions here because we have three different intersection points.

The x coordinates of those intersection points, from left to right, are: -3/2, 0, 3.

Note: -3/2 = -1.5 is exactly at the midpoint of -2 and -1.

In other words, if we plugged in x = 0 into both f(x) and g(x), then we'll get the same output value and hence f(x) = g(x) will be true. The same applies to -3/2 and 3 as well.

Recall that y = f(x) and y = g(x), so saying f(x) = g(x) really means they both have the same y outputs for that specific input x value. This explains why intersection points correspond to solutions.

------------

Since x = -3 is not on the list of solutions, this means this x value will make f(x) and g(x) be different outputs. The graph shows the curves do not intersect with each other when x = -3. Instead, g(x) is above f(x) at this location. So we can say g(x) > f(x) when x = -3.

In short, when x = -3, we have

statement #3: proof- ang is congruent to ang ecd : angles are congruent.  

step-by-step explanation:

1: the missing angles in statement #3  

a.) acb  

reason- the reason why the answer is acb is because angle ecd and angle acb are both the same size *that's what the word congruent means this is really simple.  

2: the missing word in reason #3  

c.) vertical  

reason- the reason why the answer is vertical is because the angles in that diagram on figure 2 is slanted, which is vertical, and the e and a both lay on vertical lines. along with the other's, but e and a are the 2 main points you want to focus on. and c is kind of like your starting point, because c is for both angles, not just one.  

i hope that was and understanding.
