This is the concept of algebra, a function is defined as a relationship whereby each input has one and only one single output.
In our expression;
y=-3x^2-7x-6
this can be written as:
f(x)=-3x^2-7x-6
such that, given x=0,1,2,....
f(0)=-6,
f(1)=-16
f(2)=-32
This implies that y is a function of x.
Answer:
I have already answered this in your last question:)
Answer:
The second one is correct.
If this is for E2020 the answer is
D)<span>No, his value of </span><span> should be positive because an even exponent indicates a positive value.
thats why it was wrong</span>
You can approach this question by writing the function as y=… as I did in the photo. Then rearrange to make x the subject. Lastly, swap the ys for xs and write as I did on the final line of my working. If you like I can explain how to rearrange the equation or answer any other questions but I think you should be able to see
