The graph of the function g(x) is shown on the coordinate plane below. for what value of x does g(x)=0 (the graph is y=1/2x + -3)

Step-by-step explanation: Since you know the equation the first step is to set it equal to 0, so 1/2x+-3=0, from here you just solve using algebra, with the goal of getting x by itself.  There are three good options with one that I would say is the best.  You can multiply both sides of the equation by 2, subtract -3 from both sides or subtract 1/2x from both sides, if you don't understand that let me know.  The best I would say is subtract -3 so both sides are positive.  that leaves you with 1/2x=3.  Can you tell what to do from here?

the simplified form is

step-by-step explanation:

we want to simplify the expression,

let us change the middle bar to a normal division sign to obtain,

we multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction to obtain,

we factor to obtain,

we cancel the common factors to get,

we simplify to get,

the correct answer is b
