The option A is the right answer
Answer:
The value of the x-coordinate is -3.5.
Step-by-step explanation:
To determine the x-coordinate you have to look at how far the point is on the x-axis which is the sideways line of the graph.
Point W is between -3 and -4 on the x-axis which would make the x-coordinate -3.5.
Hope this helps!
the assumption being that "x" is a plain variable whilst "y" is a function, that matters because the chain rule would be needed for a function, not so for a plain variable.

now, we know that y(5) = -23, which is another way of saying that when x = 5, y = -23, but we already knew that, we can get that by simply plugging it into the equation hmmm y'(5), well

Answer:
-24
Step-by-step explanation:
Easy way: 42 - 18 = 24, then translate it to negative 24 because your numbers are negative.
A little bit harder way: -42 + (-18) or -42 + 18 = -24
