26. y= -7/3+ 0 or just y= -7/3
27. y= -10
Answer:
- f(x) = 2x -2/3
- f(3) = 5 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
We solve an equation for a specific variable by using inverse operations to undo what is done to the variable. The resulting function is evaluated by substituting the given value for the variable.

<h3>a.</h3>
We are given the equation ...
6x -3y = 2
Solving for y, we get ...
6x -2 = 3y . . . . . add 3y-2 to both sides
2x -2/3 = y . . . . . divide by 3
f(x) = 2x -2/3 . . . . write using functional notation

<h3>b.</h3>
To find f(3), we use x=3 in the function.
f(3) = 2(3) -2/3 = 6 -2/3
f(3) = 5 1/3
Answer:
3rd group of possible answers is the correct set
Step-by-step explanation:
Each of the three points in the 3rd line of possible answers is a solution of the given equation, as can be verified by substitution:
If x = -2, y = -8(-2) = +16
If x = 3, y = -8(3) = -24
If x = -4, y = -8(-4) = +32
