Answer:

7 (x - 1) = 14

gives:   x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

According to Given conditions:

  • Difference of some number and 1 = x - 1
  • Seven times the difference of some number and 1 = 7 (x - 1)
  • Quotient of 168 and 12 = 168/12 = 14

According to given scenario:

7 (x - 1) = 14

Dividing both sides by 7

(x - 1) =2

Adding 1 on both sides:

x -1 +1 = 2 + 1

x = 3

I hope it will help you!

Graph the relation. Is the relation a function? Why or why not? {(–1, 1), (–2, 1), (–2, 2), (0, 2)} Yes; there is only one domai
Luden [163]

{(–1, 1), (–2, 1), (–2, 2), (0, 2)}

In a function, each input has an output

Each domain has a range. In a function, range can be repeated but domain cannot be repeated. Same domain cannot have two range values.

Here domain is {-1, -2, -2, 0}

Range is { 1, 1, 2, 2}

Domain -2 is repeating so this relation is not a function

Answer : No; a domain value has two range values.
