Question: 4

4. Let ‡x = 3x – 7. What is the value of ‡6?

  • A. 11
  • B. 17
  • C. 20
  • D. 25

Correct Answer: A

Explanation:

A

A "weird symbol" defined to equal an equation is simply a different form of function notation, so plug in numbers as directed by the defined equation. As ?x = 3x – 7, ?6 = 3(6) – 7 = 18 – 7 = 11.
