Intercepts occur when a line crosses the x-axis or the y-axis. When the line crosses the x-axis, then y = 0 and x = 3. ... The intercept points are (0, 4) and (3, 0 ). So the y-intercept is 4 and the x intercept is 3 and the sum is 7.

Give the function for f(x)-5|x+1|+3 for what values of x is f(x)=-12

Lyrx [107]

I’m not sure whether there is a typo in the function but I might have the answer.

If f(x) = 5(x+1)+3 = -12 then you can solve for x.

5(x+1)+3 = -12
5x + 5 + 3 = -12 << expand the brackets
5x + 5 = - 15 << minus 3
x + 1 = -3 << divide everything by 5
x = -4 << minus 1

I don’t know if this helps x Sorry
