Question

Can someone please help?

Answer 1

Answer:

  (a) no

  (b) -1, (2, -1)

  (c) 4, (4, 7)

  (d) no

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

You can check by using x=3 in the function.

  f(3) = 4(3) -9 = 12 -9 = 3 . . . . not -3

The point (3, -3) is not on the graph.

__

(b)

Put x=2 into the function and evaluate:

  f(2) = 4(2) -9 = 8 -9

  f(2) = -1

  The point (2, -1) is on the graph.

__

(c)

Put f(x) = 7 into the equation and solve for x.

  7 = 4x -9

  16 = 4x

  4 = x

  The point (4, 7) is on the graph.

(d)

  no, see part (b)
