Question
Let G=7f-g, where the graphs of f and g are shown in the figure to the right. Find the following derivative. G'(5)

Transcribed Image Text:The image shows a coordinate plane with two piecewise linear functions, \( y = f(x) \) in blue and \( y = g(x) \) in red. The x-axis and y-axis are both labeled, and the grid is divided into squares of size 1 unit by 1 unit.
### Function \( y = f(x) \):
1. **Segment 1**: A blue line starting at (0, 8), descending linearly to (2, 0).
2. **Segment 2**: Another blue line from (4, 4) ascending linearly to (8, 8).
### Function \( y = g(x) \):
1. **Segment 1**: A red line starting at (0, 0), ascending linearly to (4, 4).
2. **Segment 2**: A red line descending linearly from (4, 4) to (8, 0).
The functions intersect at the point (4, 4). The axes are marked from 0 to 8 for both x and y.
This graph is useful for understanding how piecewise functions can interact with each other, showing points of intersection, and analyzing slopes of linear segments.
