Question

g(x)=1/2x+3Find g(8)

Answer 1

$\text{Answer: }g(8)=\frac{1}{4}=025$

Explanation:

The given expression is:

$g(x_{})\text{ = }\frac{1}{2x}+3$

Finding g(8) means finding the value of g(x) when x = 8

Therefore, to get g(8), substitute x = 8 into the expression for g(x)

$g(8)\text{ = }\frac{1}{2(8)}+3$$g(8)\text{ = }\frac{1}{16}+\frac{3}{1}$

The next step is to find the LCM. The LCM of 16 and 1 is 16

$g(8)\text{ = }\frac{1+3}{16}$$g(8)\text{ = }\frac{4}{16}$$g(8)=\frac{1}{4}=0.25$
