The sum of four consecutive odd integers is –72. write an equation to model this situation, and find the values of the four integers. n + n + 2 + n + 4 + n + 6 = –72; n = –21; n + 2 = –19; n + 4 = –17; n + 6 = –15 n + (n – 2) + (n – 4) + (n – 6) = –72; n = – 21; n – 2 = –23; n – 4 = –25; n – 6 = – 27 n + n + 2 + n + 4 + n + 6 = –72; n = –21; n + 2 = –23; n + 4 = –25; n + 6 = –27 n – (n + 2) – (n + 4) – (n + 6) = –72; n = –20; n + 2 = –18; n + 4 = –16; n + 6 = –14

let's add {f(x)=x+1}f(x)=x+1 and {g(x)=2x}g(x)=2x together to make a new function.

f(x)+g(x) =(x+1)+(2x)=x+1+2x=3x+1

let's call this new function hh. so we have:

{h(x)}={f(x)}+{g(x)}{=3x+1}h(x)=f(x)+g(x)=3x+1

we can also evaluate combined functions for particular inputs. let's evaluate function hh above for x=2x=2. below are two ways of doing this.

method 1: substitute x=2x=2 into the combined function hh.

h(x)

h(2)

​    

=3x+1

=3(2)+1

=7

​ since h(x)=f(x)+g(x)h(x)=f(x)+g(x), we can also find h(2)h(2) by finding f(2) +g(2)f(2)+g(2).

first, let's find f(2)f(2):

f(x)

f(2)

​    

=x+1

=2+1

=3

​  

now, let's find g(2)g(2):

g(x)

g(2)

​    

=2x

=2⋅2

=4

​  

so f(2)+g(2)=3+4=\greend7f(2)+g(2)=3+4=7.

notice that substituting x =2x=2 directly into function hh and finding f(2) + g(2)f(2)+g(2) gave us the same answer!

5x + 5

step-by-step explanation:

you should always add the diagrams and graphs we cannot see. this particular question is kind of borderline because we can make a graph for you.

(f + g)x = -x^2 +3x + 5 + x^2 + 2x

(f + g)x = 5x + 5

the graph of z = 5x + 5 is shown below. always use desmos when in doubt.
