Answer:
f(x) = -x -1
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = mx + b
find 2 points on the line:
A( -1 , 0)
B( 0 , -1)
Put them in the equation and fine m & b:
0=m(-1)+b
-1=m(0)+b
so b= -1
and m= -1
so f(x) = -x-1
The x value when everything is solved or when the all of the x's are combined?
<h3>
1)</h3>
• 6x -2(x -5) = -2 . . . . given
• 6x -2x +10 = -2 . . . . X Cameron errored here. When multiplying -2 by -5, the result is 10, not -10.
• 4x +10 = -2 . . . . . . x terms are correctly collected
• 4x +10 -10 = -2 -10 . . . . add the opposite of the constant on the left
• 4x/4 = -12/4 . . . . divide by the x-coefficient
• x = -3 . . . . . . . . . . simplify
<h3>2)</h3>
• 11x -10 = -34 . . . . combine like terms
• 11x -10 +10 = 34 +10 . . . . addition property of equality
• 11x = 44 . . . . . . . . simplify
• 11x/11 = 44/11 . . . division property of equality
• x = 4 . . . . . . . . . . . simplify
