Can you clarify or add a picture?
The equation looks like this:
26=x*3.5+8.50
where x is the number of pen you bought.
We solve it like this:
first, we subtract 8.50 from both sides:
17.50 =3.5*x
now we divide both sides by 3.5:
5=x
so you purchased 5 pens.

Answer:
k = 2/15
Step-by-step explanation:
We can solve the given equation for k:
k = s/p . . . . . . divide the given equation by p on both sides
Using the first values from the table (15 pounds, 2 scoops), we have ...
k = 2/15
The value of k is 2/15.
F(x)=x^2+x+5
then
F(3) would be the function evaluated at x=3, or 17.
anytime you see F(3) it is just whatever formula you are looking at evaluated when the variable is equal to 3.
