Saying "a number" is the same as saying "x"
"Three more than a number" is the same as "three more than x"
If you have three more of something (say, marbles) than someone else, then you have their number of marbles plus three more.
Then, "Three more than x" is the same as "three plus x", or "3 + x"
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
down
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming this is for a parabola
a>0 the graph opens up
a < 0 the graph opens down
( negative is a frown)
Answer:
-19
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = -11 + 8x
f(-1) =-11 + 8(-1)
= -11 -8
= -19
Answer:
x ≤ 2
Step-by-step explanation:
-6x - 7 ≥ -19
Add 7 to both sides: -6x ≥ -12
Divide both sides by 6: -x ≥ -2
Divide both sides by -1: x ≤ 2
When you divide by a negative, you have to switch the sign around (hence why I chose to do this in separate steps, so it's clearer)
Answer:
7 is your answer
Step-by-step explanation:
Note the slope-intercept form:
y = slope(x) + y-intercept (or y = mx + b)
b is the y-intercept.
In this case, 7 is in the place of b, so 7 is your answer
