Answer:
6. x = 3
8. x = -7.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Put the number in place of the expression it is equal to, then solve for x.
__
6) g(x) = -x +5
2 = -x +5 . . . . . . . . . g(x) is replaced by 2, because g(x) = 2
x +2 = 5 . . . . . . . . . . add x to both sides
x = 3 . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 2 from both sides
__
8) n(x) = -2x -21
-6 = -2x -21 . . . . . n(x) is replaced by its equal: -6
3 = x +10.5 . . . . . . divide both sides by -2
-7.5 = x . . . . . . . . . subtract 10.5 from both sides

<em>Additional comment</em>
We have shown a couple of ways these equations can be solved. You can separate the x-term and the constant terms before you divide by the x-coefficient, or you can do it after. In the first equation, we could have solved it ...
2 -x +5
-3 = -x . . . . subtract 5
3 = x . . . . . . multiply by -1
The way we did it avoids negative numbers.
Answer:
8-3i
Step-by-step explanation:
The complex additive inverse is the number we need to add so that we get zero. It is the negative of the number.
a + bi is –(a + bi) = –a – bi.
a+bi + (-a+-bi) = a-a + bi-bi = 0
The complex additive invers of -8+3i is
-(-8+3i)
Distribute the negative
8 -3i
