SOLVE THE EQUATION M-2N=9 IF THE DOMAIN IS {-1,0,5}

"Domain" comes before "Range" in the dictionary, and
M comes before N in the alphabet, so I will assume
the values in the domain are for M, and so the values
in the range will be for N.

Post again if your teacher reverses the roles of M and N.

Plug in -1, 0 and 5 for M, then solve for N:

 M - 2N = 9         M - 2N = 9         M - 2N = 9
-1 - 2N = 9         0 - 2N = 9         5 - 2N = 9
    -2N = 9+1          -2N = 9            -2N = 9-5
    -2N = 10             N = -9/2         -2N = 4
      N = -5                                N = -2

So the range is {-5, -9/2, -2}
