Final answer:
To find where f(x) = 3 on the graph of the equation y = 9 + 3x, we solve the equation 9 + 3x = 3 to find that x = -2.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve for f(x) = 3 given the graph of y=f(x), we look for the point(s) where the graph of the equation crosses the line y=3. Since the equation given is y = 9 + 3x, we would set this equal to 3 to find the corresponding x-value(s). The process is as follows:
y = 3
9 + 3x = 3 (Substitute y with 3)
3x = 3 - 9 (Subtract 9 from both sides)
3x = -6 (Result of subtraction)
x = -6 / 3 (Divide both sides by 3)
x = -2 (Simplified)
Thus, the solution to f(x) = 3 is x = -2.
