Answer: f(x) = -3x + 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The function is represented by
9x + 3y= 12
This is a linear equation with x as the independent variable. This means that if x is the independent variable, the y is the dependent variable. The values of y depends on the values of x. In order to represent the function, 9x + 3y= 12, we would rearrange the function such that y stands alone on the left hand side of the equation. This becomes
9x + 3y= 12
Subtracting 9x from both sides,
9x -9x + 3y = 12 - 9x
3y = 12-9x
Dividing the lefthand side and right hand side of the equation by 3, it becomes
3y/3 = (12-9x)/3
y= -3x + 4
using function notation,
y = f(x) = -3x + 4
Answer:
x = 3.8
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation is (5 - x) / 2 = 2x - 7
Multiply both sides by 2:
5 - x = 4x - 14
Add 14 to both sides:
19 - x = 4x
Add x to both sides:
19 = 5x
Divide both sides by 5 to isolate x:
3.8 = x
Therefore, x = 3.8.
Distributive property was the first property used in STEP 1, where -4 was distributed to -3x+ 2 resulting in the equation in STEP 1. Next in STEP 2, commutative property of addition no matter how 12x and 6x are arranged, when you add them together the result will be the same.
*Take note that 12x and 6x are put together because they are like terms.
For Steps 3 and 4, you will see that the addition property of equality was used in STEP 3. To keep the equation equal, you will add the same number on both sides.
STEP 4 uses Division property of Equality. Like Step 3, to keep both sides of the equation equal, you must divide both sides with the same number. It keeps the statement true by doing so.
STEP 4 and 5 uses transitive property if you examine both as a whole.
Transitive property assumes that if a = b and b = c, then a = c
If 18/18 (a) = 1 (b), and x (c) = 18/18(a) then, x (c) = 1 (b).
