<span>f(x) = -3x^2</span>
insert x=2
y=-3*2^2
y=-3*4
y=-12
so your pair is (2,-12)
Ahh yes, negative exponents always give us a scare once and a while. All the negative means is to flip the position of its base. For instance, if x has a negative exponent and x in the denominator, all you would have to do is move x to the numerator with the same power (except it's no longer negative). Before we substitute x and all the other variables which the values given, let's eliminate the negatives first.
After flipping positions/eliminating the negative exponents it should look like this:

which simplifies to

now that everything is simplified, and all negative exponents are eliminated we can substitute x with 2, and y with (-4).

which simplifies to

Final Answer: - \frac{1}{32} [/tex]
19) 15 <= 9 + 3x
15) x = 23,24,25
17) x <= 115
9) Second line
11) g > 20, don't fill in dot, any number greater than 20
1) -3 + h<= 3.4
3) No, x > -2
5) x > 14, don't fill in dot, any number greater than 14
7) k<=20, fill in dot, 20 or any larger number

So we know he made 4,650 of sales and we need 2.5% of that
First to find 2.5% of 4650 we could do
x/4650 = 2.5/100
Cross multiply to get
100x = 11625
x = 116.25
So his salary for this week would be 225 + 116.25 = 341.25
Answer:
Should be 39 years.
there is 12 inches in a foot. and if the tree grows 4 inches every year, then in 3 years the tree would be 1 foot. 13 x 3 = 39, thus proving that in 39 years, it will be 13 feet tall. I may be wrong but this sounds correct.
