Please, write "x^3" for "the cube of x," not "x3."  "^" denotes exponentiation.

Then you have g(x) = x^3 - 5 and (I assume) h(x) = 2x - 2.

1)  evaluate g(x) at x = -2:  g(-2) = (-2)^3 - 5 = -8 - 5 = -13

2) let the input to h(x) be -13:  h(-13) = 2(-13) - 2 = -28 (answer)

Which real-world story is represented by the addition problem (–2 1/2) + (–3 1/4) = –5 3/4?
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

A is the correct answer because the equation matches option A.

(-2 1/2) + (-3 1/4)

The minus sign in -2 1/2 shows that the submarine descended and then descended again with the addition sign. Though the addition sign can mean that it ascended its incorrect.

With the equation in hand, we can prove that option A is correct.

If the submarine descended 2 1/2 miles then here must be a minus sign next to the 2 1/2. But if it ascended then there would've been an addition sign to show that it ascended. The other value - 3 1/4 also shows that it ascended with the help of the addition sign.

Ascends - values increase from smallest to highest.

Descends - values decrease from highest to smallest.

Anton [14]

Weight of slab of beeswax isn't given.

Assume slab of beeswax = 36 gram.

Answer:

3 gram

Step-by-step explanation:

Each slab of beeswax = 36 gram

Total weight of all 3 slabs = (3 * 36) = 108 g

Number of same-sized candles to make = 36

The weight of each candle will be ;

Total weight of slabs / number of candles

108 g / 36

Find the taxable income of a married couple with two children, who have a combined income of $75,000.
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

$47,200

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

The total income of a married couple =  $75,000.

Number of children = 2

Therefore to find the taxable income of  a U.S.  family is given by the following formula ---

taxable income = total income- exemption deduction - standard deduction

We know that exemption deduction for a U.S couple as fixed by the government is $15,600.

And the standard deduction for a U.S couple as fixed by the government is $12,200.

Thus in order to find the taxable income of the couple, use the formula

taxable income = total income- exemption deduction - standard deduction

                          = $75,000 - $15,600 - $12,200

                          = $47,200.

Thus the taxable income is $47,200.

Nookie1986 [14]
\text{Slope}=\frac{-1--6}{3-5}=\frac{5}{-2}\begin{gathered} y-y_1=\frac{5}{-2}(x-x_1) \\  \\ y--6=\frac{5}{-2}(x-5) \\  \\ -2(y+6)=5(x-5) \\ -2y-12=5x-25 \\ 5x+2y=25-12 \\ 5x+2y=13 \end{gathered}

The missing values are (-6, -9) ( The last option)

Explanation:

x= - 6 has already produced the value of y as 5, the only pair in the given option the make the given ordered pairs NOT to be a function is (-6, -9) since it will give the value of y to be - 9.
