Let f(x) = x2 - 8x 5. Find f(-1).

2 answers:

8 0

In the equation you have to replace all x's with -1

f (-1) = (-1)^2 - 8(-1) +5
f (-1) = 1 + 8 + 5
f (-1) = 14

the f(-1) stand for the function of -1. it is also equivalent to y

Answer:

f(-1)=14

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Function - $f(x)=x^2-8x+5$

To find : The value of f(-1)

Solution : Follow the steps :

Step 1- Write the function

$f(x)=x^2-8x+5$

Step 2- Put x=-1 to find the value of f(-1)

$f(-1)=(-1)^2-8(-1)+5$

Step 3- Solve the above equation

$f(-1)=1+8+5$

$f(-1)=14$

Therefore, f(-1)=14

The equation of line L, is y = 5x + 1

Lynna [10]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have equal slopes.

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = 5x + 1 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 5

Rearrange 2y - 10x + 3 = 0 into this form

Add 10x to both sides

2y = 10x ( subtract 3 from both sides )

2y = 10x - 3 ( divide all terms by 2 )

y = 5x - $\frac{3}{2}$ ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 5

Since both lines have a slope of 5 then they are parallel.

Which function will have a y-intercept at –1 and an amplitude of 2?

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

Options B and D.

Step-by-step explanation:

The general form of sine function

$h(x)=A\sin (Bx+C)+D$

where, |A| is amplitude, $\frac{2\pi}{B}$ is period, $\frac{-C}{B}$ is phase shift and D is y-intercept.

The general form of cosine function

$h(x)=A\cos (Bx+C)+D$

where, |A| is amplitude, $\frac{2\pi}{B}$ is period, $\frac{-C}{B}$ is phase shift and D is y-intercept.

In function, $f(x)=-\sin x-1$

Amplitude : $|A|=1$

y-intercept : -1

In function, $f(x)=-2\sin x-1$

Amplitude : $|A|=2$

y-intercept : -1

In function, $f(x)=-\cos x$

Amplitude : $|A|=1$

y-intercept : 0

In function, $f(x)=-2\cos x-1$

Amplitude : $|A|=2$

y-intercept : -1

Therefore, the correct options are B and D.
