Solve.

y = 2x + 3
x + y = 6

show work so i can understand how to solve this equation.

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

you would substitute the first equation in for the y in the second equation

x + 2x+3 =6

then you would combine the x's

3x +3 = 6

Then you would move the 3 to the other side with the six

3x =6-3       3x = 3

Then finally you would divide the three

3x/3 = 3/3   x=1

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

)
