Given the numerical equation:

-f + 2 + 4f = 9

 

Solve for ff.

Solution:

We simplify first the values of the first equation and the second equation, then we equate the values into one single solution by multiplying as the condition stated

-f + 2+ 4f = 9

Transpose 9 to the other side of the equation, hence it must be taken to note that in transposing a number, the sign changes.

= 3f + 2 - 9 
= 3f - 7

-3f - f + 2 + 4f = 8 - 3f

= -3f + 3f - f + 2 - 8 + 4f 
= 3f - 6

= (3f - 7)(3f - 6)
= 9f^2 -18f - 21f + 42
= 9f^2 - 39f + 42

Final answer:

= 9f^2 - 39f + 42
