Find the argument values for which the function value y = 187-218x is equal to -467.

1. Note that in the equation y is a functional variable, x is an argument. Substitute -467 in the equation instead of y. We get:

-467 = 187 – 218x;

2. Let’s solve the resulting equation for x:

– 467 – 187 = -218x;

-654 = – 218x;

x = -654 / -218;

x = 3;

Answer: x = 3
