Answer:
Part 1: or
Part 2:
Step-by-step explanation:
To start things off, you must put everything on the opposite side of y so that you only have the y variable left.
In this case, put x onto the other side, making it negative since it's flipped, so you get (since the x is negative you're using subtraction from 11).
Next, divide both sides by 5 to make 5y into y:
Then in this case you turn y=f(x), but the system did it for you, so all you have to put is .
For the second part you must replace x with 2 since you need to find f(2).
Your answer for part 2 is .
