Answer: Evaluate the Function, right?

Hello!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A) 4x = -4 [x=-1] =

4x = -4 =

x = -1 = x = -1

( The steps : Substitute the given value into the function and evaluate.)

B) 2(x-3) =-12 [x=3] =

2 ( x - 3) = -12 = x = -3

x = 3 = x = 3

( The steps : Substitute the given value into the function and evaluate.)

C) 8x - 4x = 24 [x = 1/2] =

8x - 4x = 24 = x = 6

x = 1/2 = x = 1/2

( The steps : Substitute the given value into the function and evaluate.)

D) 9x - 4x = 24 [x=18] =

9x - 4x = 24 = x = 24/5

x = 18 = x = 18

( The steps : Substitute the given value into the function and evaluate.)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Step-by-step explanation: All the steps are the same. Substitute the given value into the function and evaluate.

Hope this helped you!
