Answer: - 235

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

f(x) = -3x² + 13x + 3

f(-7) = -3(-7)² + 13(-7) + 3

      = -3(49) - 91 + 3

      = -147 - 88

      = -235

Answer:

x = 5 or x = - \frac{2}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

given f(x) = - 7, then

- 3x² + 13x + 3 = - 7 ( add 7 to both sides )

- 3x² + 13x + 10 = 0 ← in standard form

Consider the factors of the product of the coefficient of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x term

product = - 3 × 10 = - 30 and sum = + 13

The factors are + 15 and - 2

Use these factors to split the middle term

- 3x² + 15x - 2x + 10 = 0 ( factor by grouping the 1/2 and 3/4 terms )

- 3x(x - 5 ) - 2(x - 5 ) = 0 ( factor out (x - 5 ) )

(x - 5)(- 3x - 2) = 0

equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 5 = 0 ⇒ x = 5

- 3x - 2 = 0 ⇒ - 3x = 2 ⇒ x = - \frac{2}{3}

Evaluate the following:<br><br> Options are:<br> -20<br> 0<br> 20<br> The integral diverges
victus00 [196]

Answer:

The integral diverges

Step-by-step explanation:

∫₋₁¹ 10/x² dx

There is a discontinuity in the function at x = 0.  Splitting this into two integrals:

∫₋₁⁰ 10/x² dx + ∫₀¹ 10/x² dx

-10/x |₋₁⁰ + -10/x |₀¹

Aleksandr [31]

Answer: $70.50

Step-by-step explanation:

30npm x 125m = 3750 nails total

3750/40 = 93.75, meaning you will need 94 boxes to complete the fence

94x0.75= $70.50

A photograph was enlarged to a width of 15 inches. If the scale factor was 3 /2 , what was the width of the original photograph?
andre [41]
If the width is 15, and the scale factor from width to length is 3:2, then you will have to divide 15 by 3 to get your original width.
15/3 = 5.
5 is your original width.
