Question

Given the function f(a) = 5a + 14, solve for f(a) = 0.
Give an exact answer; do not round.

Answer 1

Answer:

a = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write out your problem

f (a) = 5a + 14 | f (a) = 0

Step 2: Solve

f (a) = 5 (0) + 14 , Input a.

f (a) = 0 + 14 , 5 x 0 = 0

(a) = 14 , 0 + 14

a = 14

Answer 2

basically f(a) is your y and a is your x. The question is asking you what would your “y” be if your “x” is 0. If you plug 0 into the a, you would multiply 5•0 which would leave you with positive 14.
f(a)=5a+14
so basically y=5x+14 and x=0
plug in 0 for your x
y=0
