Evaluate for x = 2. (12x + 8) 4 A) 4 B) 5 C) 6 D) 8

1 answer:

3 0

What you want to do here is plug 2 in for x. when a question asks you to evaluate a certain equation at a certain number, it's just asking you to plug the value in for your variable. i'm assuming that 12x + 8 is meant to be set over 4 as a fraction.

(12(2) + 8)/4 ... figure out the top first. 12*2 = 24, 24 + 8 = 32.

32/4 = 8, so your correct choice is D.

A geometric sequence has an initial value of 9 and a common ratio of 5. What function could represent this situation?

leonid [27]

Answer:

The functions that represent this situation are A and C.

Step-by-step explanation:

A geometric sequence goes from one term to the next by always multiplying or dividing by the same value.

In geometric sequences, the ratio between consecutive terms is always the same. We call that ratio the common ratio.

This is the explicit formula for the geometric sequence whose first term is k and common ratio is r

Use the parabola tool to graph the quadratic function f(x) =-5x2 -2

enot [183]

Your first point would be on (0, 2), the vertex. Then, put a point on (-2, 22). Hope that helps!

What are the x-intercepts of the graph of the quadratic function

Svetllana [295]

Zero Product Property: if a × b = 0, then either a or b = 0 or both a and b = 0.

(Make sure to set f(x) to zero)

So for this equation, I will be factoring by grouping. Firstly, what two terms have a product of -5x^2 and a sum of 4x? That would be 5x and -x. Replace 4x with 5x - x: $0=5x^2+5x-x-1$
