Question

If the function rule is y = 5x - 10 and the input is 12, what is the output.

Answer 1

Explanation:

Say
`x` is the input, and
`y` is the output.

`y = 5x - 10` becomes
`y = 5(12) - 10`

We need to multiply 5 by 12.

5 times 12 = 60.

Subtract 10 to get our answer.

60 - 10 = 50.

The complete equation is
`50 = 5(12) - 10`

Where as
`x` is 12, and
`y\\` is 50.

Hope this helped.

Have a nice day.
