<em>Substitute x = 2 as we get</em>
<em>f(2) = -4(2)+4 = -8+4 = -4</em>
<em>Therefore, f(2) = -4</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
first fish tank: 95-4x
second fish tank: 40+5x
1. Define variable
The variable x represents the number of days.
2. Write the inequality
<em>95-4x=40+5x</em>
<em />
3. You probably don't need the answer but I am just going to solve.
The first fish tank will have less water than the second fish tank after 7 days.
<em>95-4x=40+5x </em>
<em>95-4(7)=40+5(7)</em>
<em>95-28=40+35</em>
<em>67=75</em>
<em>Since the first equation (95-4x) represents the first fish tank, and the second equation (40+5x) represents the second fish tank, the solution shows how the amount of water in the first fish tank is less than the amount of water un the second fish tank after 7 days.</em>
Eighty million four hundred twenty thousand one hundred.
-6 +8x = -38
8x = -32
x = -4
I did this by first adding 6 to both sides to get 8x by itself. I then divided by 8 to get x by itself. I remembered to use the - - + rule (Two negatives make a positive, a positive and a negative make a negative). Hope this helps!
