(05.03 lc) determine the solution to f(x) = g(x) using the following system of equations: (5 points) f(x) = 5.5x − 13 g(x) = −5x + 18.5 x = 1 x = 2 x = 3 x = 4

If g(x) is equal to f(x), then they are the same value.

Put 5.5x - 13 in place of g(x) in the second equation.

5.5x - 13 = -5x + 18.5

Add 13 to both sides.

5.5x = -5x + 31.5

Add 5x to both sides.

10.5x = 31.5

Divide 10.5 on both sides.

x = 3

Hope this helps! :)
