What is the input value other than -2−2minus, 2 for which h(x)=6h(x)=6h, left parenthesis, x, right parenthesis, equals, 6?

x=x=x, equals
A coordinate plane. The x- and y-axes both scale by one. There is a graphed function, y equals h of x, which is made up of line segments. A line segment connects negative ten, four to negative nine, five. A line segment connects negative nine, five to negative eight, four. A line segment connects negative eight, four to negative four, eight. A line segment connects negative four, eight to zero, four. A line segment connects zero, four to one, two. A line segment connects one, two to three, zero. A line segment connects three, zero to four, two. A line segment connects four, two to seven, negative one. A line segment connects seven, negative one to eight, zero. A line segment connects eight, zero to nine, negative two. A line segment connects nine, negative two to ten, negative one.

Answer:

-6

Explanation:

You want to know where the line y=6 intersects the graph of h(x) shown as a series of line segments.

Points of intersection

The attached graph shows the value of h(x) is 6 for x=-2 (known) and x=-6.

The other input value is -6.

What is the input value other than -2−2minus, 2 for which h(x)=6h(x)=6h, left parenthesis-example-1
