Answer: (1,-2) , (5,-35)

Explanation:

x = 1

1. g(x) = 5 - 7x

This can also be written as g(1) = 5 - 7x

This means that we plug in 1 for all the "x"s. So we get:

g(1) = 5 - 7(1)

7(1) = 7

5 - 7 = -2

x = 1 is true and that means y = -2 (because g(x) also means y

x = 5

1. g(x) = 5 - 7x

This can also be written as g(5) = 5 - 7x

This means that we plug in 5 for all the "x"s. So we get:

g(5) = 5 - 7(5)

7(5) = 35

5 - 35 = -30

x = 5 is true and that means y = -35

I think this is what the question meant, hope this helps!
