Answer:
Step 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Fiona did mistake step 2.
Use the distributive property to multiply -3 times each term in the trinomial.
The correct result is
-3(5x^2 - 2x + 7) = -15x^2 + 6x - 21
Fiona written -6x instead of + 6x.
That's the error.
The answer is "Step 2"
Hope you will understand the concept.
Thank you.
The value of <u>x</u> that the given point of the function is 11.
<h3>Linear Function</h3>
An equation can be represented by a linear function. The standard form for the linear equation is: y= ax+b , for example, y=5x+3. Where:
a= the slope
b= the constant term that represents the y-intercept.
For the previous example: a=5 and b=3.
The question gives a point (x , -3) of a function f(x)= -x+8. Therefore, you can write
-3=-x+8
x=8+3
x=11
Thus, the x-coordinate is equal to 11.

You add two equations together to eliminate a variable. This particular problem is nice, because it's already setup to eliminate X.
3x - 4y = 9
<span>-3x + 2y = 9
</span>
When we add these two together, 3x - 3x cancels each other out, leaving us with 0x, or nothing.
We continue with -4y + 2y (leaves us with -2y) and 9+9 (18).
-2y = 18
18/-2 = -9.
Now we have y = -9, and we can go back into the problems to solve for x.
<span>3x - 4(-9) = 9
</span>
3x + 36 = 9.
3x = -27
x = -9.
Confirm with the final equation:
-3(-9) + 2(-9) = 9
27 - 18 = 9
9 = 9 --- Confirmed.
