Question

For the function f(x) = 3x+2, find x such that f(x) = 14.

Answer 1

Alright, let's do this! Love your name btw

Answer 2

well so 14 = 3x + 2

Answer 3

thanks!

Answer 4

Ok so let's evaluate f(x) at 14

This is f(14)

So we plug in 14 for the x in the function and evaluate!

Like so... f(14) = 3(14)+2

Answer 5

ok

Answer 6

Do you know what to do now?

Answer 7

i get what you are saying @Cosmichaotic and ya i do let me do the work and ill ask if the answer is right

Answer 8

f(x)=3x+2
and f(x)=14
u have found one thing common in both the equation that is the left hand term is same so put the 14 there
then it become
14=3x+2
3x+2-14=0
3x-12=0
3x=12
x=12/3
x=4 is the correct answer

Answer 9

@Haseeb96 is right ;)

Answer 10

Oh, where f(x) = 14, not for x = 14, my bad.

Answer 11

i got 44

Answer 12

no @Shadowgirl15 forget that...

Answer 13

No @PFEH.1999 is correct my brother @Cosmichaotic

Answer 14

so the answer is 4?

Answer 15

@Shadowgirl15 please have serve of my explanation

Answer 16

We are actually setting f(x) to 14 here, and not x to 14

So we need to say

f(x) = 14
f(x) = 3x+2

So 14 = 3x + 2

and then solve for x.

Answer 17

yes

Answer 18

Thanks!!!
