Question

Compare the function f () to the function g (2) to the function g(x) = -2x - 3). Which statement is correct? ) f(2) is equal to g(2). b) f(2) is greater than g(2). c) f(2) is less than g(2). d) f(2) is not related to g(2).

Answer 1

Without knowledge of f(x) or f(2), we cannot compare f(2) to g(2) for g(x) = -2x - 3; however, g(2) is calculated as -7.

Step-by-step explanation:

To compare the function f(2) to the function g(2) for g(x) = -2x - 3, we need the value of f(2), but since it is not provided, we cannot determine the relationship between f(2) and g(2).

However, we can calculate g(2) by substituting x with 2 in the function g(x):

g(2) = -2(2) - 3
g(2) = -4 - 3
g(2) = -7

Without the explicit function of f(x) or the value of f(2), we cannot state whether f(2) is equal to, greater than, or less than g(2).
