F(x) = -5x - 4
g(x) = 6x - 7
f(x) + g(x) = (-5x-4) + (6x-7)
f(x) + g(x) = x - 11
Answer: f(2) is 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
f(2) just means "what is the vale of the function, f, when x = 2? Look for x=2 and read the y value where the line crosses x=2, in this case, the y value is 3. So f(2) = 3.

[One could also determine the equation for the line. Provided below.]
The slope is -(1/2) and the y-intercept is 4:
y = -(1/2)x + 4
For x=2,
y = -(1/2)*(2) + 4
y = 3
y(2) = 3
Answer: You could only buy 1 pound of raisins and 1 pound of walnuts
Step-by-step explanation:
$8=1 pound of walnuts
$15-$8=$7
$4=1 pound of raisins
$7-$4=$3
$3 is not enough to buy a pound of raisins since it’s one dollar off but it is also not enough to buy a pound of walnuts because it’s off by $5
