Math Problem Statement

For what value of x is g(x) = -3?

Solution

The problem asks for what value of xx, g(x)=3g(x) = -3, and there is a graph of the function g(x)g(x) shown.

To solve this:

  1. Look at the point where g(x)=3g(x) = -3 on the y-axis.
  2. Identify the corresponding xx-coordinate on the graph.

From the graph, it appears that g(x)=3g(x) = -3 corresponds to the point where the line intersects the y-value of -3. From visual inspection, this happens at x=2x = 2.

Thus, the value of xx for which g(x)=3g(x) = -3 is:

x=2x = 2

  2. What is the domain of the given function g(x)g(x)?
  3. How do you find where the function is increasing or decreasing from a graph?
  4. What are the intercepts of the function g(x)g(x)?
  5. How would you calculate the value of g(x)g(x) for any given xx?

Tip: When solving graph problems, always check where the graph intersects key points on the y-axis and x-axis to understand the behavior of the function.
