If f(x) = 3 - 2x and g(x) = 1/x + 5, what is the value of (f/g)(8)? 
-169, -1, 13, 104

Solution:

Given f(x) = 3 - 2x and g(x) = 1/x + 5

A function is defined as a relationship between one variable (the independent variable) and another variable (the dependent variable).

Here we divide two polynomials.

(f/g)(x) = f(x)/g(x) = (3 - 2x )/(1/x + 5)

⇒ (f/g)(8) = 3 - 2(8)/ 1/(8 + 5))

⇒ (f/g)(8) = 3 - 16 / (1/13)

= -13 × 13 = -169

⇒(f/g)(8) = -169

If f(x) = 3 - 2x and g(x) = 1/x + 5, what is the value of (f/g)(8)?

Summary:

If f(x) = 3 - 2x and g(x) = 1/x + 5, then the value of (f/g)(8) value is -169.
