Question

If F(x) = ax + b, where a and b are integers, f(2) = 6 and F(3) = 7 then find the values of a and b.

hintHint:

Put the given values of x and functions and find the required value.

The correct answer is: a = 1


    We have given the values of f(x)

    F(x) = ax + b

    F(2) = 6

    F(3) = 7

    When x = 2

    a(2) + b =6

    2a + b = 6      ------(i)

    when x = 3

    a(3) + b = 7

    3a + b = 7       -------(ii)
    Subtract equation (ii) from (i)

    3a – 2a + b – b = 7 – 6

    a = 1
    Put this value in equation (i)

    2(1) + b = 6

    b = 6 – 2

    b = 4
    Therefore the value of a = 1
