<span>Using the information we have 3x+4=40 Do the same to each side of the equation to eliminate for x. 3x+4=40 Minus 4 from each side 3x=40-4 3x=36 Divide 3 from each side x=36/3 x=12 AC=3x+4 insert the value of x 3(12)+4=40 AC=40 AD=20</span>

Find f(x) if it is known that f(x−6)=12x−72.

zheka24 [161]

Answer:

f(x)=12x

Step-by-step explanation

We know that f(x) is our y-coordinate and x is the x-coordinate

Next we should insert x-6 as x in the equation

This is f(x)=12(x-6)-72

But if you look at this that leads to 12x-72 (ignore y-intercept)

That is our first equation

This means that if you take out -6 from the x

You will get f(x)=12x

Which of the sets of equations represent the two lines graphed?

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

B) y = x + 2 and y = -x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the equation of a straight line with x-intercept 'a' and y-intercept 'b' be

$\frac{x}{a} + \frac{y}{b} = 1$

The line with positive slope has x-intercept a=-2 and y-intercept b=2.

Its equation is:

$\frac{x}{ - 2} + \frac{y}{2} = 1$

Multiply through by 2

$- x + y = 2$

Solve for y,

$\boxed {y = x + 2}$

For the line with a negative slope,

the x-intercept is a=-4 and the y-intercept is b=-4

Its equation is

$\frac{x}{ - 4} + \frac{y}{ - 4} = 1$

Multiply through by -4

$x + y = - 4$

Solve for y

$\boxed {y = - x - 4}$
