$\sf 2x^2 - 8x = - 7 \\ \\ Subtract \ -7 \ from \ both \ sides \ of \ the \ equation. \\ \\ 2x^2 - 8x - (-7 ) = - 7 - (-7) \\ \\ 2x^2 - 8x + 7 = 0 \\ \\ Use \ quadratic \ formula \ a = 2, b = -8, c = 7 \\ \\ x = \dfrac{- b \pm \sqrt{b^2- 4ac} }{2a} \\ \\ \\ x = \dfrac{-(-8) \pm \sqrt{(-8)^2 - 4 (2) (7) } }{2(2)} \\ \\ x = \dfrac{8 \pm \sqrt{8} }{4} \\ \\ x = 2 + \frac{1}{2}\sqrt{2} \ or \ x = 2 + \frac{-1}{2} \sqrt{2}$

Given the function f(x) = -5|x + 1| + 3, for what values of x is f(x) = -12? O X= -2. x = 1 O x= -2 x = 4 O x = 2. x = 4 O x = 2

puteri [66]

The values are x= -2 and x =4 of the given function f (x) =-5|x+1| +3

<h3>What is function?</h3>

Function is an expression, rule, or law that defines a relationship between one variable (the independent variable) and another variable (the dependent variable).

According to the question,

The given function is

$f(x) = -5|x + 1| + 3$

Here f(x) = -12

Substitute f(x) and solve for x

$- 12 = -5|x + 1| + 3$

By subtracting 3 on both sides

$- 12 - 3 = -5|x + 1| + 3 - 3$

$- 15 = -5|x + 1|$

By dividing -5 on both sides

$3 = |x + 1|$

We get absolute values for the function.

$x + 1 = 3 , x + 1 = -3$

By subtracting 1 on both sides

$x + 1 - 1 = 3 - 1 = 2\\\\x + 1 - 1 = - 3 - 1 = -4\\\\x = 2 , x = - 4$

Therefore, the values of x are 2 and - 4 of the given function f (x) =-5|x+1| +3
