Consider the function represented by the equation x – y = 3. what is the equation written in function notation, with x as the independent variable? f(x) = y + 3 f(x) = –y – 3 f(x) = –x + 3 f(x) = x – 3

The answer would be the last option. f(x)=x-3

a4 - 3a2 - 1

step-by-step explanation:

step   1   :

equation at the end of step   1   :

  ((a4) -   3a2) -   1

step   2   :

trying to factor by splitting the middle term

2.1     factoring   a4-3a2-1  

the first term is,   a4   its coefficient is   1 .

the middle term is,   -3a2   its coefficient is   -3 .

the last term, "the constant", is   -1  

step-by-step explanation:

107 units
