You can put this solution on YOUR website!
This is like the last Solution that I posted. But YOU are supposed to tell ME what value of x to substitute. I'll make up a problem for you. Suppose you wanted to find f(-3).\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "f(x) = 10x + 1
\n" ); document.write( "f(-3) = ______\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "First, this is a special notation that does NOT mean f times x. It is a special notation that is read \"f of x\", and it means that you are to substitute a value of x into this formula and simplify the result to find the value of the answer. It is MUCH easier than everyone can possibly imagine.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Given
\n" ); document.write( "f(x) = 10x + 1
\n" ); document.write( "f(-3) means that you sustitute the value of -3 in place of the x value(s).
\n" ); document.write( "f(-3) = 10(-3) + 1
\n" ); document.write( "f(-3) = -30 +1 = -29\r
\n" ); document.write( "
