Question

Find the value of x if h(x) = -2013. h(x) = -4( x - 3 )

Answer 1

Given the function:

`h(x)=-4(x-3)`

if we have h(x)=-20, we can find the value of x by matching both equations:

`\begin{gathered} -4(x-3)=-20 \\ \Rightarrow x-3=(-20)/(-4) \\ \Rightarrow x-3=5 \\ \Rightarrow x=5+3=8 \\ x=8 \end{gathered}`

therefore, x=8
