F(x) is another way to say “y” so you could also write, y=2(x+6)-4, and it’s asking what does x equal if y is 6, so you substitute 6 for y.
6=2(x+6)-4
6=2x+12-4
6=2x+8
-2=2x
-1=x
<u>Answer:</u>
3 and 60
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
For the given proportions,
, 3 and 60 are the extremes while 12 and 15 are the means.
To understand this, we can take a look at an example.
Suppose two ratios a:b and c:d are in proportion.Then it can be expressed as
:

Here, a and d are the extreme ends and b and c are the means.
X=-a/6
Because you need to isolate x
C is a function. X cannot repeat itself more than once, that will make it not a function. For example 1,1, 1,2, 1,3 x repeats itself 3 times that is NOT a function. Y can repeat itself more than once but X cannot.
