Question

Somebody out there who can help me with functions?

Answer 1

Now, we have a point.
Every point can be viewed as P(x,y) but y is the image of x in the function, so therefore, any point "P" can be viewed as:
\[P(x,f(x))\]
So given that point, we can conclude that:
\[f(-1)=7\]
That is using the structure of a point, I just gave you.
And, now let's add 3 to it, to make it become:
\[f(x+3)=y+3\]
and plotting the given point:
\[f(-1+3)=7+3\]
\[f(2)=10\]
And transforming it into a point, a new point we can call "Q":
\[Q(2,10)\]

Yea, I appreciate your effort in trying to help me though! It must have been bothersome to spend that time on one problem only to find that it was wrong. :/

Don't be silly.
The best way to learn is to actually make mistakes.
I was wrong, but it was worth the new knowledge ;)
