Given the function f(x)=-2x-1 and g(x)=-3x 4 which operation results in the smallest coefficient on the x term?
a. two operations result in the same coefficient
b. subtraction
c. multiplication
d. addition

a. two operations result in the same coefficient

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given functions,

f(x) = -2x - 1,

g(x) = -3x + 4,

Subtracting,

Case 1 : f(x) - g(x)

-2x - 1 + 3x - 4 = x - 5

Case 2 : g(x) - f(x)

3x - 4 + 2x + 1 = 5x - 3

Coefficient of x = 1 or 5

Multiplication :

f(x)* g(x) = (-2x - 1) (-3x + 4) = 6x² - 8x + 3x - 4 = 6x² - 5x - 4

Coefficient of x = -5

Addition :

f(x) + g(x) = -2x - 1 - 3x + 4 = -5x + 3

Coefficient of x = -5

Thus, the least coefficient of x = -5

And, two operation ( multiplication and addition ) operations result in the same coefficient

OPTION a is correct.

the figures below are made out of circles, semicircles, quarter … find the area and the perimeter of each figure and give your answers as a completely simplified exact value in terms of π (no approximations). remember that we'll also have to cut whatever areas we get in half, since we're only dealing
