Answer:

x = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

One is given a function and the value of the function at a certain output. One must set the function to the given output, and solve to find the input,

h(x) = - x - 2

h(x) = 3

Set the output equal to the input,

h(x) = - x - 2 = 3

Inverse operations,

- x - 2 = 3

+2 +2

- x = 5

*-1 *-1

x = -5

Which expression equals 6x − 5y + 2 − 8x + 3( y + 5)? A) 3x − 2y + 17 B) −3x + 2y + 17 C) −2x − 2y + 17 D) −2x − 2y − 17

inysia [295]

Answer:

C) −2x − 2y + 17

Step-by-step explanation (PEMDAS):

First, we do 3 (y + 5) because of the parenthesis:

6x − 5y + 2 − 8x + 3y + 15

Since there are no exponents, multiplication ,or division, we will add and subtract. But we have to make sure we combine like terms. X with X's, Y with Y's and constants with constants. And ALWAYS go from left to right

6x − 5y + 2 − 8x + 3y + 15

−2x − 5y + 2 + 3y + 15

−2x − 2y + 2 + 15

−2x − 2y + 17.
