# Hack 1 (Python) - Mathematical Functions
def add(a, b):
    """Returns the sum of a and b."""
    return a + b

def subtract(a, b):
    """Returns the result of subtracting b from a."""
    return a - b

def divide(a, b):
    """Returns the result of dividing a by b."""
    return a / b

def modulus(a, b):
    """Returns the remainder when a is divided by b."""
    return a % b

def power(a, b):
    """Raises a to the power of b."""
    return a ** b

# Example Usage
print(add(6, 3))      # Output: 9
print(subtract(6, 3)) # Output: 3
print(divide(6, 3))   # Output: 2.0
print(modulus(6, 3))  # Output: 0
print(power(6, 3))    # Output: 216

# Output:
# 9

# Hack 2 (Python) - Function to Transform Input
def point_finder(x):
    """Multiplies x by 5, adds 2, and returns the result."""
    return (x * 5) + 2

# Example Usage
print(point_finder(-4))  # Output: -18
print(point_finder(5))   # Output: 27
print(point_finder(10))  # Output: 52

# Output:
# -18
