Question

Given f(x) = -1/2x + 7, find x when f(x) = 10.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

$f(x) = - \frac{1}{2} x + 7 \\ \\ when \: f(x) = 10 \\ \\ \therefore \: 10 = - \frac{1}{2} x + 7 \\ \therefore \: \frac{1}{2} x = 7 - 10 \\ \\ \therefore \: \frac{1}{2} x = - 3 \\ \\ \therefore \: x = - 3 \times 2 \\ \\ \huge \purple {\boxed{\therefore \: x = - 6}}$
