find f (10)

Rearrange:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

Theory - Roots of a product

3.1    A product of several terms equals zero.  

When a product of two or more terms equals zero, then at least one of the terms must be zero.  

We shall now solve each term = 0 separately  

In other words, we are going to solve as many equations as there are terms in the product  

Any solution of term = 0 solves product = 0 as well.

Solving a Single Variable Equation:

3.2      Solve  :    x = 0  

 Solution is  x = 0

Equation of a Straight Line

3.3     Solve   f+x+3  = 0

Tiger recognizes that we have here an equation of a straight line. Such an equation is usually written y=mx+b ("y=mx+c" in the UK).

"y=mx+b" is the formula of a straight line drawn on Cartesian coordinate system in which "y" is the vertical axis and "x" the horizontal axis.

In this formula :

y tells us how far up the line goes

x tells us how far along

m is the Slope or Gradient i.e. how steep the line is

b is the Y-intercept i.e. where the line crosses the Y axis

The X and Y intercepts and the Slope are called the line properties. We shall now graph the line  f+x+3  = 0 and calculate its properties

Graph of a Straight Line :

Calculate the Y-Intercept :

Notice that when x = 0 the value of f is -3/1 so this line "cuts" the f axis at f=-3.00000

 f-intercept = -3/1  = -3.00000  

Calculate the X-Intercept :

When f = 0 the value of x is -3/1 Our line therefore "cuts" the x axis at x=-3.00000

 x-intercept = -3/1  = -3.00000  

Calculate the Slope :

Slope is defined as the change in f divided by the change in x. We note that for x=0, the value of f is -3.000 and for x=2.000, the value of f is -5.000. So, for a change of 2.000 in x (The change in x is sometimes referred to as "RUN") we get a change of -5.000 - (-3.000) = -2.000 in f. (The change in f is sometimes referred to as "RISE" and the Slope is m = RISE / RUN)

   Slope     = -2.000/2.000 = -1.000  

Geometric figure: Straight Line

 Slope = -2.000/2.000 = -1.000

 x-intercept = -3/1 = -3.00000

 f-intercept = -3/1 = -3.00000

x = 0

answer: 370

step-by-step explanation:

remember use pemdas! there are no parentheses or exponents so lets move onto the first part of the equation: multiplication and division. first, lets break the first part of the equation up into something easier using the distributive property. 28 * 12= (20 *12) + (8*12) you know that 20*12 is 240 and 8*12 is 96. add them and you get 336. then, lets solve the last part of the equation (the last part of pemdas is addition and subtraction). 336 plus 34 is 370. hope this !
