Question

Given: `f(x) = 2+ sqrt(-3x+1)`, `q(x) = (5x)/(x+2)`, and `m(x) = abs(7 - x^2) + x`, how do you find m(-3)?

Answer 1

Again, the equations for `f(x)` and `q(x)` are irrelevant.

Given `m(x) = abs(7-x^2) +x`

`m(color(red)(-3)) = abs(7- (color(red)(-3))^2) + (color(red)(-3))`

`= abs(-2) -3`

`= -1`
