Since x is less than 0 we have to use -2x.
Substitute -3 for x.
f(x) = -2(-3)
f(x) = 6

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: x = 7
Step-by-step explanation: In order for a parallelogram to be a square, the angles at the corners must be 90 degrees, and the diagonals that bisect the corner angles must be 45 degrees.
4x + 17 = 45 Subtract 17 from both sides.
4x = 28 Divide both sides by 4
x = 7
Answer:
(x, y) = (5, 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
To <em>eliminate</em> x, you can double the second equation and subtract the first.
... 2(x +4y) -(2x -3y) = 2(9) -(7)
...11y = 11 . . . . . simplify
... y = 1 . . . . . . divide by 11
Using the second equation to find x, we have ...
... x + 4·1 = 9
... x = 5 . . . . . subtract 4
_____
<u>Check</u>
2·5 -3·1 = 10 -3 = 7 . . . . agrees with the first equation
(Since we used the second equation to find x, we know it will check.)
