Answer:
X=73/7
Step-by-step explanation:
In the equation you have to replace all x's with -1
f (-1) = (-1)^2 - 8(-1) +5
f (-1) = 1 + 8 + 5
f (-1) = 14
the f(-1) stand for the function of -1. it is also equivalent to y
A.
F(10)= (10)^2-3(10)-5
F(10)=100-30-5
F(10)=65
B.
F(-3)=(-3)^2-3(-3)-5
F(-3)=9+9-5
F(-3)=13
C.
G(2)= -6(2)+1
G(2)= -12+1
G(2)=-11
D.
G(10)=-6(10)+1
G(10)= -60+1
G(10)= -59
Answer:
x = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Well the first step is to apply the distributive property:
4(3x - 1) is equal to (12x - 4). You DISTRIBUTE a '4' to what is inside the parentheses.
And btw, to make it easier, you can make 9 - x so that x is first. For example, (-x + 9). They're both the same thing, just written differently.
Your new equation is 12x - 4 = -x + 9. You want to now solve the equation.
Add the (-x) to both sides. It cancels out on the right side and you add it to 12x on the left side.
[If there's no number in front of a variable, you can always just put 1 in order to make it easier]
12x + 1x = 13x. Your new equation is 13x - 4 = 9. This should look very familiar. You simply add 4 to both sides. 9 + 4 = 13
Finally, 13x = 13. Divide 13 ÷ 13 to get 1.
x = 1
