The following values represent linear function ƒ(x) and rational function g(x). ƒ(3) = 7 g(3) = 5.6 ƒ(4) = 5 g(4) = 6.7 A. Determine whether or not there is a solution to the equation In 2-3 sentences describe whether there is a solution to the equation ƒ(x)=g(x) between x=3 and x=4. B. Use complete sentences to justify your claim.
As you can see, it's a decreasing continuous function (decreasing because f(4) < f(3) being because this is a linear function. Given g(x) is continuous in the range [3,4] if and only if m(x) doesn't equal 0 in the same range. Since we don't know if m(x) meets those requirements, we don't know if there is a solution to f(x)=g(x)
