Hello,
Let's suppose f(x)=3x+7
f(a-1)=3(a-1)+7=3a-3+7=3x+4
Answer B with a sign "++++++++++++++++++++++++++++"
-3x=2x+19
-19 -19
-3x-19=2x
+3x +3x
-19=5x
/5 /5
x=19/5
I don't really get your question. But, I will try my best to answer it. 42 is a whole number and you could use the number for any operation.
I hope this helps:)
To do this problem you would first need to factor out a variable, which in this case I would want to do the first equation because it is isolated. Now the equations would look like this:
x = -2y - 1
4x - 4y = 20
Since we know that x is now equal to -2y - 1 we can plug it in to the x value in the second equation:
4 (-2y -1) - 4y = 20
-8y -4 - 4y
-12y - 4 = 20
-12y = 24
y = -2
Now that we know the y value plug the y value to one equation to find the x, I will be using the first equation
x + 2(-2) = -1
x - 4 = -1
x = 3
Solutions:
y = -2
x = 3
