Substitution again help please
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) 4x -3

x = -7 ;

4x - 3 = 4*(-7) - 3 = - 28 - 3 = -31

x = 14 ;

4x - 3 = 4*14 - 3 = 56 - 3 = 53

x = 0

4x - 3 = 0 - 3 = -3

2) 6 -3x

x = -7 ;

6 - 3x = 6 - 3*(-7) = 6 + 21 = 27

x = 14

6 - 3x = 6 - 3*14 = 6 - 42 = -36

x = 0

6 - 3x = 6 - 0 = 6

3) \dfrac{3x - 21}{7}\\\\x = -7\\\\\\\dfrac{3*(-7)-21}{7}=\dfrac{-21-21}{7}=\dfrac{-42}{7}=-6\\\\\\x = 14\\\\\dfrac{3*14-21}{7}=\dfrac{42-21}{7}=\dfrac{21}{7}=3\\\\\\x=0\\\\\dfrac{0-21}{7}=\dfrac{-21}{7}=-3\\\\

4)

\dfrac{3x}{7}-21\\\\\\x = -7\\\\\dfrac{3*(-7)}{7}-21=-3-21=-24\\\\\\x =14\\\\\dfrac{3*14}{7}-21=3*2-21=6-21=-15\\\\\\x=0\\\\\dfrac{0}{7}-21=-21
