Question

If the function f (x) is defined by f(x) =x over 2 minus 6

Answer 1

Depending on how it is written, it could be either of these following solutions:

f(x) = x/2 - 6     or     f(x) = x/(2-6)

For the first, we solve for x by replacing f(x) with 0

x/2 - 6 = 0

x/2 = 6

x = 3

For the second, do the same

x/(2-6) = 0

x/-4 = 0

x = 0
