The sea & sun souvenir shop is known for its specialty salt water taffy. every week, anthony fills a gigantic jar with taffy to put in the storefront display. this week, he puts in 500 pieces of cherry taffy but still has more space to fill. anthony fills the rest of the jar with banana taffy, his favorite flavor. in all, anthony puts 725 pieces of taffy in the jar. which equation can you use to find how many pieces of banana taffy b are in the jar?

you have to subtract the cherry taffy of 500 as that is not asked

725-500=225

b=725-500

answer:

(-8,7)

explanation:

we know that  

f

(

−

3

)

=

7

therefore, if we wish to get the output as 7, in the function, we need to have our input to be -3.

looking at the function  

f

(

x

+

5

)

, what should the value of x be, such that the input in the function becomes 7?

we simply equate the terms,

x

+

5

=

−

3

x

=

−

8

thus, the point on the new function would be  

(

−

8

,

7

)
