Answer:

−2

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 2(x+8)

f(x) = 12

12 = 2(x+8)

Divide each side by 2

12/2 = 2/2(x+8)

6 = x+8

Subtract 8 from each side

6-8 =x+8-8

-2 = x

f(x) = 2(x+8)

replace f(x) with 12 and then solve for x:

12 = 2(x +8)

Use the distributive Property on the right side:

12 = 2x +16

Subtract 16 from each side:

-4 - 2x

Divide both sides by 2:

x = -4 / 2

x = -2

How many solutions does this linear system have?
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

One solution: (2.5,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use substitution for the solution. Substitute y=2x-5 to -8x-4y=-20 so that you end up with -8x-8x+20=-20. Next you want to add like terms which will be -16x+20=-20, next you want isolate x by subtracting 20 from both sides and leaves you with -16x=-40. Divide -16 on both sides to fully isolate x and will leave you with x=2.5. Now substiture in 2.5 for x in y=2x-5 to get y=2(2.5)-5 which will then lead to y=0.
