f(2) This means that x is 2, so you can plug in 2 for "x" in the equation
f(x) = 3x - 12
f(2) = 3(2) - 12
f(2) = 6 - 12
f(2) = -6
Your answer is D
Answer:
D. -6
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi!!! You have to substitute 2 for f(x) & for the x next to 3!!!
f(x) = 3x- 12
f(2) = 3(2) - 12
= 6 - 12
= 6 -12
= -6
If p(x) is a cubic polynomial with zeros at -3,-1, and 2, and p(0)=6, find p(x).
Answer:
[tex]p(x)=-x^3-2x^2+5x+6.[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
If a cubic polynomial has zeros [tex]x_1,\ x_2,\ x_3,[/tex] then it has a form
[tex]p(x)=a(x-x_1)(x-x_2)(x-x_3).[/tex]
In your case, zeros are -3, -1 and 2, then the polynomial is
[tex]p(x)=a(x-(-3))(x-(-1))(x-2),\\ \\p(x)=a(x+3)(x+1)(x-2).[/tex]
If [tex]p(0)=6,[/tex] then
[tex]p(0)=a(0+3)(0+1)(0-2)=6,\\ \\-6a=6,\\ \\a=-1[/tex]
and
[tex]p(x)=-(x+3)(x+1)(x-2)=-x^3-2x^2+5x+6.[/tex]
if x - 4 , x + 2 and 3x + 6 form a geometric sequence, find x.
Answer:
x =7
Step-by-step explanation:
Remark
A geometric sequence always has terms that are separated by a common ratio. For example 3 9 27 81 243 .... Each term is multiplied by a common number and the term before it. In this case the common term is 3. To get the next term after 9, you multiply 9 by 3.To get the common ratio divide the second term by the first and then the third term by the secondEquation
(x + 2)/(x - 4) = (3x + 6)/ (x + 2)
Solution
I would begin this problem by taking out the common factor on the top right term. You'll see why in a second.
(x + 2)/(x - 4) = 3(x + 2)/ (x + 2) Notice the two binomials on the right cancel.
(x + 2)/(x - 4) = 3/1 Cross multiply(x + 2)*1 = 3*(x - 4) Remove the brackets on the right.x + 2 = 3x - 12 Add 12 on both sides.x + 2 + 12 = 3x - 12 + 12 Simplifyx + 14 = 3x Subtract x from both sides14 = 3x - x2x = 14 Divide by 2x = 14/2x = 7How do I factor quadratics?
Ok so factoring quadratics is fairly easy once you get the hang of it
So we have a quadratic [tex]x^2+x-2[/tex]
My first question would be what 2 numbers multiply to -2 and add to +1
the answer is 2 and -1
Second question what 2 values multiply to get [tex]x^2[/tex]
the answer x and x
your factored form would be [tex](x-1)(x+2)[/tex]
This is as far as i can explain there is a whole lot about quadratics to be learned. You have to ask your teacher on more information

Answer:
A y = -x+2
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the slope of the line m we use the formula
slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (-9--7)/(4-2)
= (-9+7)/(4-2)
= -2/2
= -1
When lines are parallel, the slopes are the same. We need to find a line with slope of -1
y = -1x+2 is written in the form y =mx+b where m is the slope
m=-1 so the slope is -1
This line has the same slope so it is parallel to the line above.
Answer:
would be A
Step-by-step explanation:
SLOPE HAS TO BE -1

In a supermarket bin the number of packages of red to peppers to the number of packages of green peppers is in the ratio of 8 is to 13.The peppers are sold in 2 pound packages.What is the least possible weight of red peppers in the bin?
Answer:
16 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of no. of packages of red pepper to no. of packages of green pepper is given 8 is to 13.
So, atleast 8 packages of red pepper are sold
Therefore, least possible weight of red peppers in the bin = 2×8 = 16 pounds.
The least possible weight of red peppers in a supermarket bin with a ratio of 8 to 13 of red to green peppers, where each package weighs 2 pounds, is 16 pounds.
To find the least possible weight, we assume the smallest number of packages that maintain the ratio. Multiplying both numbers of the ratio by 2 pounds gives us the weight of the red and green peppers, but since we want the least possible weight of red peppers, we'll only calculate for red.
Therefore, if we have 8 packages of red peppers, each weighing 2 pounds, the calculation would be:
8 packages × 2 pounds/package = 16 pounds of red peppersUse slope formula to find the missing coordinate.
(r, 1) and (5, -7) Slope = 8/3
Answer:
r=8
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for slope is
m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)
Substitute in what we know.
8/3 = (-7-1)/(5-r)
Simplify
8/3 = -8/(5-r)
We can use cross products to help us solve.
8 * (5-r) = 3 * (-8)
divide each side by 8
8/8 * (5-r) = 3 * (-8)/8
5-r = -3
Subtract 5 from each side
5-r-5 = -3-5
-r = -8
Multiply by -1
r = 8

Bhavik bought 33 liters of milk and 55 loaves of bread for a total of \$11$11. A month later, he bought 44 liters of milk and 44 loaves of bread at the same prices, for a total of \$10$10. How much does a liter of milk cost, and how much does a loaf of bread cost?
Answer: The cost of 1 liter milk is $ 0.75 and the cost of a loaf of bread is $1.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the cost of one liter of milk is m dollar and the cost of one loaf of bread is b dollar.
Since, the total cost of the 3 liter milk and 5 loaf of bread = $ 11
That is, 3 m + 5 b = 11 ----------(1)
And, the cost of the 4 liter of milk and 4 loaf of bread = $ 10
That is, 4 m + 4 b = 10 -----------(2)
4 × Equation (1),
12 m + 20 b = 44 -----------(3)
3 × Equation (2),
12 m + 12 b = 30 --------------(4)
Equation (3) - Equation (4),
We get, 8 b = 14
⇒ b = 14/8 = 1.75
By putting the value of b in equation (1)
We get,
3 m = 11 - 1.75×5 ⇒ m = 2.25/3 = 0.75
Thus, the price of one liter of milk = $ 0.75
And, the price of one loaf = $ 1.75
Answer:
The cost of 1 liter milk is $ 0.75 and the cost of a loaf of bread is $1.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Two parallel lines are crossed by a transversal . What is the value of k?
Answer:
k = 60
Step-by-step explanation:
2k + 11 is a same side corresponding angle, hence
2k + 11 = 131 ( vertically opposite angles )
subtract 11 from both sides
2k = 120 ( divide both sides by 2 )
k = 60
Answer:
Option C. k = 60
Step-by-step explanation:
There are two lines Z and Y and crossed by a transverse x.
We have to find the value of k.
Since opposite angle of ( 2k + 11 ) is corresponding angle of 131°
so opposite angle of ( 2k + 11 ) will be = (2k + 11)
and corresponding angles are equal in measure.
So 2k + 11 = 131
2k = 131 - 11
2k = 120
k = 60
Option C k = 60 is the answer.

Which system of inequalities is shown? A.y2 B.yx y<2 D.y>x y>2
Answer: y > x, y > 2
The horizontal line goes through 2 on the y axis. This boundary line is represented by the equation y = 2, since every point on this line has a y coord of 2. The shading above it means that the inequality is y > 2. Every point in the shaded region of y > 2 has a y coord that is larger than 2.
The other inequality is y > x because we shade above the dashed boundary line y = x, which is that slanted dashed line.
Combining the two regions of y > 2 and y > x leads to what is shown.
Final answer:
The question regarding systems of inequalities is incomplete, but linear inequalities like y < x or y > 2 can be graphically represented. The same is true for linear equations, with options A, B, and C all depicting linear forms.
Explanation:
The question which system of inequalities is shown seems to be missing some context or parts, but in general, inequalities can be represented on a graph and used to describe the relationship between variables. When dealing with linear inequalities, such as y < x or y > 2, these can be shown graphically with a line dividing the plane into two regions: one where the inequality is true and the other where it is false. For instance, y < x would be represented by a line that slopes upward to the right, and the region below this line (where y is less than x) is shaded. Similarly, for y > 2, a horizontal line is drawn at y=2, and the area above this line is shaded, indicating where y is greater than 2.
When looking at linear equations, all the options A. y = -3x, B. y = 0.2 + 0.74x, and C. y = -9.4 - 2x are indeed linear, as they can all be written in the form y = mx + b, where m and b are real numbers and represent the slope and y-intercept of the line, respectively.

Solve for a in the equation a-17=42
Answer:
a = 59
Step-by-step explanation:
Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Isolate the variable (a). Add 17 to both sides
a - 17 = 42
a - 17 (+17) = 42 (+17)
a = 42 + 17
Simplify. Combine like terms
a = 42 + 17
a = 59
59 is your answer
~
Solve for a (this means they want you to get "a" by itself in the equation)
So:
a - 17 = 42 Add 17 on both sides to get "a" by itself
a - 17 + 17 = 42 + 17
a = 59

Salar's Drama class is performing a play. He wants to buy as many tickets as he can afford. If tickets cost $3.50 each and he has $15.25 to spend, how many tickets can he buy?
Answer: 4 tickets
Step-by-step explanation: If $15.25 is Salar’s total and each ticket costs $3.50, we need to use division to figure out how many tickets Salar can purchase. When we divide 15.25/3.50, we get 4.35 (approximately). Salar can’t have .35 of a ticket, so we round down to 4 whole tickets.

Which of these sets of numbers contain all rational numbers?
A. π, 1/2, -13
B. -3.0541...,√99, 0.14363
C. -6, -√225, 4 7/8
D. √21, 0.75, 0
The answer is C, -6, -√225, 4 7/8.
Rational means that the number can be expressed as a fraction and integer numerators and denominators. -6 and 4 7/8 can clearly be expressed as a fraction. -6 can be expressed as -6/1 and 4 7/8 can be expressed as 39/8.
-√225 is equivalent to -15, which is rational.
A is wrong because the number includes Pi.
B is wrong because -3.0541 never ends and √99 is irrational.
D is wrong because √21 is also irrational.
The Set C. -6, -√225, 4 7/8 is the only set that contains all rational numbers.
Explanation:The set of rational numbers consists of numbers that can be expressed as a fraction of two integers. To determine which set of numbers contains all rational numbers, we need to check if all the numbers in each set can be expressed as a fraction.
In set A, only 1/2 is a rational number.
In set B, -3.0541... and 0.14363 can be expressed as fractions, but √99 cannot.
In set C, -6, -√225, and 4 7/8 can all be expressed as fractions.
In set D, √21 is not a rational number, while 0 and 0.75 are rational numbers.
Therefore, set C is the only set that contains all rational numbers.

which graph represents the function f(x)=0.25x+5
Answer:
Option D.
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the given function
[tex]f(x)=0.25^x+5[/tex]
We need to find the graph of given function.
Substitute x=0 in the given function to find the y-intercept of the function.
[tex]f(0)=0.25^(0)+5[/tex]
[tex]f(0)=1+5[/tex]
[tex]f(0)=6[/tex]
So, y-intercept of the function is 6.
[tex](0.25)^x\rightarrow \infty[/tex] as [tex]x\rightarrow -\infty[/tex]
[tex](0.25)^x\rightarrow 0[/tex] as [tex]x\rightarrow \infty[/tex]
