Let f(x) = 3x + 2 and g(x) =x - 3. find f(x) - g(x).

Hello!

if the functions in our problem are:

f(x) = 3x + 2, and g(x) = x - 3

you can calculate their difference in this way:

(f - g)(x) = f(x) - g(x)

now i replace f(x) and g(x) for their values and simplify the equation.

= (3x + 2) - (x - 3) = 3x + 2 -x +3 = (3x - x) + (2 + 3) = 2x + 5

So the solution is f(x) - g(x) = 2x + 5.

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet

step-by-step explanation:

let's assume length of parallelogram is 'l'

width of parallelogram is 'w'

the perimeter of a parallelogram must be no less than 40 feet

so, we get

we are given

length of parallelogram is 6 feet

so,

l=6

we can plug it

now, we can solve for w

subtract both sides by 12

divide both sides by 2

and we get

so,

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet
