777/3=259
259 multiples of 3
f(x) is read is function f of x.
Where x is the input variable and function f(x) gives output value of function for x input value.
For the given function, we have f(3).
If we compare f(3) by f(x), the x represented by input value 3.
Therefore, x value is 3 there.
And we also have f(x) =-5.
Because function value is -5. So we can read it as, "for x input value of the the function gives output value -5."
For the asked value of x is just x=3.
Answer:
x = 
Step-by-step explanation:
The absolute value always returns a positive value but the expression inside can be positive or negative, that is
x + 4 = 3x - 5 ( subtract 3x from both sides )
- 2x + 4 = - 5 (subtract 4 from both sides )
- 2x = - 9 ( divide both sides by - 2 )
x = 
OR
-(x + 4) = 3x - 5
- x - 4 = 3x - 5 ( subtract 3x from both sides )
- 4x - 4 = - 5 ( add 4 to both sides )
- 4x = - 1 ( divide both sides by - 4 )
x = 
As a check
Substitute these values into the equation and if both sides are equal then they are the solutions
|
+ 4 | = |
| = 
right side =
- 5 = 
left side = right side , thus x =
is a solution
check second solution
|
+ 4 | = |
| = 
right side =
- 5 = - 
right side ≠ left sides, hence not a solution
Answer:
10pm
Step-by-step explanation:
10pm + 2 hours = 12am
12am + 7 hours = 7am,
2 + 7 = 9
