Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
The value of f(x) for x=0 is f(0). The first line of the table tells you that value is 6.
f(0) = 6
Number 4 and 6 are correct because you can only add variables with other variables so that is why 4 and 6 are correct
Answer:
-1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
You would use rise over run:
12-11/2-6
When simplified, this is -1/4
There are many reasons one may want to simplify, rearranging to find specific values - or maybe just making it simpler
Well, let's do some examples:
y(x(3+2)) +2 = -2y +2 <span>< I just made this one up, it looks really complicated right now, none the less it can be simplified easily
</span>y(3x+2x) + 2 = - 2y +2
3xy + 2xy + 2 = -2y +2
5xy + 2 = -2y +2 <-- the +2's dissapear because they cancel out
5xy = -2y
<span>And there we have it, that long expression has been simplified to something really simple.
</span>
Another example:
3(4(x+3(2 +z)) - 5)= 3y <span><- you can start where ever, I like starting in the middle
</span>3 * (4 * (x + 3*(2 + z)) - 5 ) = 3y <span><- here it is spaced out, we get a much better view
</span><span>3 * (4 * (x + 6 + 3z) - 5 ) = 3y</span>
3 * (4x + 24 + 12z - 5) = 3y <- divide both sides by 3 ..
4x + 24 + 12z - 5 = y <- much better
<span>
</span>Note: Simplify means solving to a degree, but you can't solve it because it has unknowns
