If f(x)=3x-2,find f(8)-f(-5)

Mathematics

Alexandra [31]4 years ago

To find both f(8) and f(-5), we will need to plug in their values for x and solve for each. Then, we can subtract them to find the final answer.

Finding f(8):

f(8) = 3(8) - 2

f(8) = 24 - 2

f(8) = 22

Finding f(-5):

f(-5) = 3(-5) - 2

f(-5) = -15 - 2

f(-5) = -17

Subtracting f(8) and f(-5):

f(8) - f(-5)

22 - - 17

22 + 17

Hope this helps!! :)

4: (3/4 - 1/2) X 3/5. 

You need them all to have the same denominator (bottom number) 
The lowest common denominator (LCM) of 2,4 and 5 is 20
4 X 5 = 20
2 X 10 = 20
5 X 4 = 20 

Then multiply the top number by the amount you need to multiply the bottom number by to get 20

3 X 5 = 15
1 X 10 = 10
3 X 4 = 12

(3/4 - 1/2) X 3/5. Turns to (15/20 - 10/20) X 12/20.

15 - 10  = 5
5 X 12 = 60

Answer: 60/20
Simplified: Either 3 or 3/1.



If you use the steps above then you should be able to do the rest :D

Need help with inscribed angles If M
Bogdan [553]

Given:

In the given circle O, BC is diameter, OA is radius, DC is a chord parallel to chord BA and m\angle BCD=30^\circ.

To find:

The m\angle AOB.

Solution:

If a transversal line intersect two parallel lines, then the alternate interior angles are congruent.

We have, DC is parallel to BA and BC is the transversal line.

\angle OBA\cong \angle BCD        [Alternate interior angles]

m\angle OBA=m\angle BCD

m\angle OBA=30^\circ

In triangle AOB, OA and OB are radii of the circle O. It means OA=OB and triangle AOB is an isosceles triangle.

We know that base angles of an isosceles triangle are congruent.

\angle OAB\cong \angle OBA      [Base angles of an isosceles triangle]

m\angle OAB=m\angle OBA

m\angle OAB=30^\circ

In triangle AOB,

m\angle OAB+m\angle OBA+m\angle AOB=180^\circ

30^\circ+30^\circ+m\angle AOB=180^\circ

60^\circ+m\angle AOB=180^\circ

m\angle AOB=180^\circ-60^\circ

m\angle AOB=120^\circ

Therefore, the measure of angle AOB is 120 degrees.

Find two positive real numbers whose product is a maximum. the sum is 80
Eduardwww [97]
Let's say the numbers are "a" and "b"

thus \bf y=ab\qquad 
\begin{cases}
a+b=80\\
b=80-a
\end{cases}\implies y=a(80-a)\implies y=80a-a^2\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
\cfrac{dy}{da}=80-2a

set the derivative to 0, and check the critical points, there's only one anyway

and do a first-derivative test, to see if it's a maximum

What is f(0) if f(t) = t^2 – 2t – 2?
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

f(t) = t^2 – 2t – 2

To find f(0), replace t with 0 in the expression and evaluate the expression.

f(0) = 0^2 – 2(0) – 2

f(0) = -2
