2/3 is it's simplified form
Check the graph and observe where x = 2.
And check where it cuts across the line of the graph.
If you trace the graph carefully, when x = 2, y = -2
So the value of the function is -2.
I hope this helps.
Answer: True, False, False, False, False
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
a) 5x - 7(x - 1)
5x - 7x + 7
-2x + 7 ⇒ a = -2, b = 7 <em>One Solution</em>
b) 3(x - 5) - 7
3x - 15 - 7
3x - 22 ⇒ a = 3, b = -22 <em>One Solution</em>
c) 2 - 7x + 3 + 4x
4x - 7x + 3 + 2
-3x + 5 ⇒ a = -3, b = 5 <em>One Solution</em>
d) -3(x - 3) - 1
-3x + 9 - 1
-3x + 8 ⇒ a = -3, b = 8 <em>One Solution</em>
e) -5x + 2 + 2x + 4
-5x + 2x + 2 + 4
-3x + 6 ⇒ a = -3, b = 6 <em>One Solution</em>
The length of ST is 10 units, the length of S't" is 2 units.
This means the dilated figure was decreased by a factor of 5.
Because it is smaller it would be a scale factor of 1/5 ( 0.2 as a decimal).
