Answer:
x = - 25 , x = 84
Step-by-step explanation:
Given f(x) = - [tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex] x - 17 and f(x) = - 2 , then equate right sides
- [tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex] x - 17 = - 2 ( add 17 to both sides )
- [tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex] x = 15 ( multiply both sides by 5 to clear the fraction )
- 3x = 75 ( divide both sides by - 3 )
x = - 25
---------------------------------------------------------
Similarly equate right sides
- 11 - [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex] x = - 25 ( add 11 to both sides )
- [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex] x = - 14 ( multiply both sides by 6 to clear the fraction )
- x = - 84 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )
x = 84
