31. It gives you the equation f(x) = -2x + 4 and asks you to solve for f(12). To solve this you must replace x in the equation -2x + 4 with 12 like so:
-2(12) + 4
Remember that when solving this use your rules of PEMDAS. In this case you will first multiply -2 and 12 then add the product with 4
-24 + 4
f(12) = -20
33. Replace x in the equation x³ - x with 5 like so...
5³ - 5
Again, remember to use the rules of PEMDAS to solve this. First take the cube of 5 then subtract 5 from the answer
125 - 5
g(5) = 120
Hope this helped!

Don't get too involved in the 'simplify' part just yet.
It doesn't mean make the problem easier.
It means that when you have the answer, make sure it's in simplest form.
That's why it says "Simplify your answer".
Notice that that's the 2nd instruction.
There's nothing to simplify until you have an answer.
The first thing you have to do here is find the area of a triangle.
Do you remember that formula ?
I'll bet you do.
The area of a triangle is (1/2) · (length of the base) · (height) .
The height and the length of the base are given, right there
in the picture. Take those, and use them to find the area.
Once you've multiplied the binomials, don't forget about the (1/2).
Finally, you have a trinomial for an answer.
Put the big sweet cherry on top: Factor it !
I think that's the 'simplify' part.
You may be surprised.
I was when I worked it out just now ... just for you.
Answer: 6247.5
Step-by-step explanation:
85% x 105000 = 89250
70 x 89.25 = 6247.5
