Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given f(x) = 3x – 1

f(x) = -7

3x-1 = -7

3x = -7+1

3x = -6

x = -2

Answer:

x = -22

Step-by-step explanation:

given:

$f(x) = 3x - 1$

solve for x, when:

$f(x) = -7$

replace x with -7

~~~~~~~~~~~~

➡️ $x = 3(-7) - 1$

➡️ $x = -21 - 1$

➡️ $x = -22$

Use the quadratic formula to find the solutions to the equation x^2-3x+1=0

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

$x_{1}=\frac{+3+\sqrt{5} }{2}\\\\x_{2}=\frac{+3-\sqrt{5} }{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Using:

$x=\frac{-b+-\sqrt{b^{2}-4*a*c} }{2*a}$

we will have two solutions.

x^2-3x+1=0

So, a=1 b=-3 c=1

$x_{1}=\frac{+3+\sqrt{-3^{2}-4*1*1} }{2*1}\\\\x_{2}=\frac{+3-\sqrt{-3^{2}-4*1*1} }{2*1}$

We have two solutions:

$x_{1}=\frac{+3+\sqrt{5} }{2}\\\\x_{2}=\frac{+3-\sqrt{5} }{2}$

What is the solution to the inequality? 4x−5>19−8x

Nostrana [21]

Answer:

x>1.16

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 5 from each side to get 4x>14-8x

change the symbol from +8 to -8

4x> 14+ (-8x)

than add 8x to both sides

12x > 14

which would mean that x has to be greater than 1.16

x>1.16
