Answer:

74°F

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the average of a certain amount of numbers, you add those numbers together and divide by how many numbers there are. In this case, you would reverse that method to find the last number. We know that there were four readings, and we have three of them and the average. Multiply the average (84.75) by the number of readings (4), and you get the sum of all the readings (339). Then you subtract each of the readings that you already know to isolate the last reading. 339 - 112 (first reading) = 227, 227 - 68 (second reading) = 159, and 159 - 85 (fourth reading) = 74. Therefore, the third reading must be 74.

Sean has to face a big problem but he becomes stronger as a result which saying best summarizes the change in Sean?
kkurt [141]

Answer: D. every cloud has a silver lining

The cloud represents a dark, scary, or sad moment. This is in contrast to the sun which metaphorically represents energy and happiness. The cloud sometimes covers up the sun to cover up those happy moments so to speak.

Despite the cloud being present, there's a silver lining to the cloud which represents some positive aspect a person didn't expect to happen. In this case, the problem allows Sean to get stronger. So this is an opportunity for his growth.

What is f(-2) of the function given below? *<br> f(x) = 3x2 - 4x + 1
slava [35]

Answer:

f(-2) = 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

f(x) = 3x² - 4x + 1

f(-2) is x = -2

Step 2: Substitute and Evaluate

f(-2) = 3(-2)² - 4(-2) + 1

f(-2) = 3(4) + 8 + 1

f(-2) = 12 + 9

f(-2) = 21
