The best way to estimate it is to do "written addition" in your head, adding 1+8, then 9+3, all the way until you get to the front. the actual answer is 189,459, so your answer should be somewhere close to that.
Gordon read a total of 35 pages, so if there is p pages read per day and 10 days you'd have something that looks like this: 35 = 10p.
Short answer: 39
y = 7x - 3
f(x) = y = 7x - 3 Though there are some slight differences between f(x) and y, it is safe to say that f(x) acts (in this case) as a y value. So the question now is what does y(6) mean?
y(6) means exactly the same thing as what f(6) would mean. The both mean that where ever you see an x, put in a 6.
So y(6) means 7x - 3 = 7*6 - 3 = 39
