Answer 1

14

Explanation:

hi! so the question is asking what h is when you input -18 for x, right?

inputing in this question means to substitute, meaning that in this equation, -18 will take the place of x!

• let's see what the equation looks like now
• 
  `h = 17 + (-18)/(6)`
• easy as that!

now let's do the math :)

• because of PEMDAS, remember to do the fraction (dividing) first!
• 
  `h = 17 + (-3)`

we can change that to --> h = 17 - 3

h = 14

let me know if you're still confused!
