Question

f(x) = 3x - 5 and g(x) = 5x + 8. Find 3g(x) - 2f(x).

Answer 1

Answer:

9x + 34

Step-by-step explanation:

3g(x) - 2f(x); f(x) = 3x - 5 & g(x) = 5x + 8.

3(5x + 8) + - 2(3x - 5) (Plug g(x) & f(x) into equation)

15x + 24 + - 6x + 10 (Use distributive property)

9x + 34 (Combine like terms) - This is as much as it can be simplified.
