Given the following functions f(x) and g(x), solve (f + g)(5) and select the correct answer below:
f(x) = 8x − 13
g(x) = x − 9
a.) 23
b.) 27
c.) 31
d.) 40

Consider the input and output values for f(x) = 2x - 3 and g(x) = 2x + 7. what is a reasonable explanation for different rules with different input values producing the same sequence?

Three students, javier, sam, and corrine, participated in a fundraiser where people donated a certain amount of money per lap that the student ran. each student also had some initial donations that were collected before the run. the equations that represent each student's total donation, y, based on the number of laps ran, x, is shown below. match each equation with the correct rate of change for that student.
