If g(3) = 5 and g(-1) = 5, explain why g(x) does not have an inverse.

g(x) cannot have an inverse because it gives the same output value for two individual input values.

In this case, g(x) is 5 when x is both 3 and -1. Hence, g(x) does not have an inverse.

Let me know if you have any questions, thanks!

let's solve your equation step-by-step.

4x+2=2x+12

step 1: subtract 2x from both sides.

4x+2−2x=2x+12−2x

2x+2=12

step 2: subtract 2 from both sides.

2x+2−2=12−2

2x=10

step 3: divide both sides by 2.

2x

2

=

10

2

x=5
