Answer: 32
Step-by-step explanation:
When the set has <em>n</em> elements, the power set has
elements. This also gives us the cardinality of the power set, which is what we are looking for.
A = {2,3,9,7,5}
(1) 2
(2) 3
(3) 9
(4) 7
(5) 5
<em>n</em> = 5


32
Unfortunately, you haven't shared the instructions for this problem. My guess is that you are to evaluate <span>P(x)= x^3+4x^2-8x-6 for x = a = -2.
If that's the case, then
P(-2) = (-2)^3 + 4(-2)^2 - 8(-2) - 6. This simplifies to:
= -8 + 16 + 16 - 6 = 18 (answer)</span>
Substitute 5 and 3 for a and b in the original expression.
8(a+b)
8(5+3)
Using the rules of PEMDAS, solve the inside of the parentheses first, then multiply accordingly.
8(8)
<u>The final answer is 64.</u>
Answer:
choice b because it is constantly going up the same amount.
