Question 1195: Affine Functions at One Input

Original question and givens

Over R, f(x)=(7)x+(2) and g(x)=(8)x+(1). At the single input x=2, are f(x) and g(x) equal?

• G001 — Over R, f(x)=(7)x+(2) and g(x)=(8)x+(1). At the single input x=2, are f(x) and g(x) equal?

Definition and scope

Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.

• mko-linear-function

Step-by-step derivation

f:R→R; f(x)=mx+b

m=0 gives a constant affine function

m·x := mul(7, 2)

m·x = 14

f(x) := sum(14, 2)

f(x) = 16

u·x := mul(8, 2)

u·x = 16

g(x) := sum(16, 1)

g(x) = 17

f(2)=16; g(2)=17

equal at this point: No

Reverse checks

• S006 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.
• S005 · premise_and_result_audit — Recompute g(x) with exact rational arithmetic, not rounded decimals.
• S004 · premise_and_result_audit — Recompute u·x with exact rational arithmetic, not rounded decimals.
• S003 · premise_and_result_audit — Recompute f(x) with exact rational arithmetic, not rounded decimals.
• S002 · premise_and_result_audit — Recompute m·x with exact rational arithmetic, not rounded decimals.
• S001 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.

Result

No

The full substitutions and premise checks give the original answer; source identity,format and status are unchanged.
