Can you think of any other examples of functions?
<em>Yes! Like putting a check in the bank, that is the input- and then the money you take is the output. You can even use food to compare input and output! Ingredients are the input, and the final dish/dessert is the output. If you wanted something more mathematical, you can use a graph to find the input and output. If you know a few points, you can create a whole line of x and y points, where x= input and y=output. You can also consider getting gas for your car, the money is the input, and the gas (in return) is the output. <== these are just a few examples.
</em>
Why might this type of equation be useful?
When you are trying to find the points for a line or looking for the unit price for something, functions can be very useful! You can find what y would be when x equals 1, 2, 3, 4, etc. I know I use this all the time! For example, trying to find the best price for something in the grocery store. There are a lot of options, and if you find the unit price with functions, it makes it easier to get the best deal.
I hope this helps!

hey buddy how's it going?

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation
3x + 9 + 2x = x - 2x - 3
Solution
Combine all the like terms.
3x+2x+9 = x - 2x - 3
5x + 9 = -x - 3 Add x to both sides of the equation
5x+x +9 = -x+x -3 Combine
6x + 9 = - 3 Subtract 9 from both sides of the equation
6x+9-9 = - 3-9 Combine
6x = -12 Divide both sides by 6
6x/6 = -12/6
x = - 2
Answer x = - 2
