Answer:
The value of x when f(x) equals 6 is 3/5.
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to solve this problem, we shall start by inputting what we know.
Since the problem provides you with the value of f(x), we will input the value in the given equation.
Original Equation: f(x) = 5x + 3
New Equation: 6 = 5x + 3
Now that all known values of variables have been added to the equation, we will begin to solve.
Start by subtracting both sides of the equation by 3. This step is necessary to isolate x in order to find it's value.
6 = 5x + 3
6 - 3 = 5x + 3 - 3
3 = 5x
Next, we shall divide both side of the equation by 5. This step will allow us to isolate x and finally solve its value.
3 = 5x
3/5 = 5x/5
3/5 = x
Thus, the value of x in f(x) = 5x + 3 is 3/5.

To be sure your answer is correct, insert the values of both f(x) and x into the equation provided and solve like so...
f(x) = 5x + 3
6 = 5(3/5) + 3
6 = 3 + 3
6 = 6 ✅
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
let width=x
length=3x
area=x*3x=3x^2
so 3x^2=10
N the slope-intercept form you use the slope of the line and the y-intercept to express the linear function.
y=mx+b
y=mx+b
Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
Example
Graph the equation
y−2x=1
y−2x=1
rewrite in slope-intercept form
y=2x+1
y=2x+1
Identify the slope and the y-intercept
m = 2 and b = 1
Plot the point corresponding to the y-intercept, (0,1)
picture23
The m-value, the slope, tells us that for each step to the right on the x-axis we move 2 steps upwards on the y-axis (since m = 2)

And once you have your second point you can just draw a line through the two points and extend it in both directions.
picture25
You can check to see that the line you've drawn is the correct one by substituting the coordinates of the second point into the original equation. If the equation holds true than the second point is correct.
Our second point = (1, 3)
y−2x=1
y−2x=1
3−2⋅1=3−2=1
3−2⋅1=3−2=1
Our second point is a solution to the equation i.e. the line we drew is correct.
A line that passes through the origin has a y-intersect of zero, b = 0, and represents a direct variation.
y=mx
y=mx
In a direct variation the nonzero number m is called the constant of variation.
You can name a function, f by using the function notion
f(x)=mx+b
f(x)=mx+b
f(x) is another name for y and is read as "the value of f at x" or "f of x". You can use other letters than f to name functions.
A group of functions that have similar characteristics are called a family of functions. All functions that can be written on the form f(x) = mx + b belong to the family of linear functions.
The most basic function in a family of functions is called the parent function. The parent function of all linear functions is
f(x)=x
First, it would help to simplify each side more:
Left side: 36 + 3(4x - 9) = 36 + 12x - 27 = 12x + 9
Right side: c(2x + 1) + 25 = 2cx + c + 25
Write the simplified equation:
12x + 9 = 2cx + c + 25
Usually when there is no solution, the coefficients of the variable on both sides are the same, so we can make the coefficient if x on the right side into 12:
2cx >>> 12x
Then, c must equal 6 to make this true.
The answer is choice (C).
