6 0

Simplify 5x-3-7 to -2x-3
-2x-3=15-x
Add 2x on both sides
−3=15−x+2x
Simplify 15-x+2x to 15+x
−3=15+x
Subtract 15 on both sides
-3-15=x
Simplify -3-15 to -18
-18=x
X=-18

Y=3x+13<br> 2x=y-9<br> Solve for x and y points using addition method

GrogVix [38]

$y=3x+13 \\
2x=y-9 \ \ \ |-y-2x \\ \\
y=3x+13 \\
\underline{-y=-2x-9} \ \ \ \hbox{add the sides} \\
y-y=3x-2x+13-9 \\
0=x+4 \\
x=-4 \\ \\
y=3x+13=3 \times (-4)+13=-12+13=1 \\ \\
\boxed{(x,y)=(-4,1)}$

If h(x)= 6x - 17, find h(8). *

Lena [83]

The value of h(8) in h(x)= 6x - 17 is 31

What are functions:

Functions relate input and output. Therefore, a function takes elements from a set (the domain) and relates them to elements in a set (range).

h(x)= 6x - 17

Let's find h(8)

h(8) = 6(8) - 17

h(8) = 48 - 17

h(8) = 31
