When it says f(x) and x is replaced with a number, it just means replace the x in the equation with that number.
(Simpler) Way to solve using the graph:
Go to where x = -4 (4 spaces right of the center) and look above and below it for the line. Wherever the line is, is the answer. So f(-4) = 2 because when x is -4, the y value is 2.
Example of solving with an equation:
f(3) = 2
f(3) = 2(3)
f(3) = 6
You create an equation for the line, than substitute -4 in to the equation.
Let the measure of the smaller angle be x, then the larger angle is 5 + 6x and
x + 5 + 6x = 180
7x + 5 = 180
7x = 180 - 5 = 175
x = 175/7 = 25
The larger angle is 5 + 6(25) = 5 + 150 = 155 degrees.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
At the point where two line cut across, the vertically opposite angles formed are equal. This means that
2x degrees = 78 degrees
Dividing the left hand side and the right hand side of the equation by 2, it becomes
2x/2 = 78/2
x = 39
Checking,
The sum of the angles on a straight line is 180 degrees.
180 - 78 = 102 degrees
2x + 102 = 180
2x = 180 - 102 = 78
x = 78/2 = 39
1/4 divided by 7/1 equals 1/28
