In Exercises 17-20, find the value of x so that the function has the given value. 17. f(x) = 8x - 7; f(x) = 17
18. g(x) = -4x + 7; g(x) = 27
19. f(x) = {* – 1; f(x) = 9
20. h(x) = 6 – Şx; h(x) = -2

Answer:

17.) x = 3

18.) x = -5

I couldn't do 19.) and 20.) for you because there are weird symbols that I believe you mistakenly input. But I'm sure you now get the gist of how to solve such problems. Peace <3

Step-by-step explanation:

All you really have to do for all of the problems is substitute your value of "x" for the function.

17.) f(x) = 8x - 7; f(x) =17

    17 = 8x -7  ---- substitute 17 for f(x), add 7 on both sides

    24 = 8x ------ divide 8 on both sides

    x = 3

18.)    g(x) = -4x + 7; g(x) = 27

           27  = -4x + 7  substitute 27 for g(x), subtract 7 on both sides

           20 = -4x

            x = -5
