Answer:
14
Step-by-step explanation:
14+9=25
Answer:
-2a + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
We can substitute a + 7 for x:
f(a + 7) = 17 - 2(a+7) = 17 - 2a - 14 = -2a + 3
Answer:
(- 4, 27 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Equate the right sides of both equations, that is
x² - 2x + 3 = - 2x + 19 ← subtract - 2x + 19 from both sides
x² - 16 = 0 ← in standard form
(x - 4)(x + 4) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x - 4 = 0 ⇒ x = 4
x + 4 = 0 ⇒ x = - 4
Substitute these values into f(x) = - 2x + 19
f(4) = - 2(4) + 19 = - 8 + 19 = 11 ⇒ (4, 11 )
f(- 4) = - 2(- 4) + 19 = 8 + 19 = 27 ⇒ (- 4, 27 )
