$14 is 9.5238% of $147

So, calculating 9.5238% of $84, we get $7.99, which would lead me to say.

The answer to your question is C> $8.00

Evaluate the function f (x)= x squared -4x+1 at the given values of the independent variable and simplify.
Ivan
<h3>Given</h3>

... f(x) = x² -4x +1

<h3>Find</h3>

... a) f(-8)

... b) f(x+9)

... c) f(-x)

<h3>Solution</h3>

In each case, put the function argument where x is, then simplify.

a) f(-8) = (-8)² -4(-8) +1 = 64 +32 + 1 = 97

b) f(x+9) = (x+9)² -4(x+9) +1

... = x² +18x +81 -4x -36 +1

... f(x+9) = x² +14x +46

c) f(-x) = (-x)² -4(-x) +1

... f(-x) = x² +4x +1

Translate the expression into a word phrase. k + 12 A. a number less than 12 B. 12 more than a number C. the product of a number
Burka [1]
The answer is b) 12 more than a number

when you use the word "more than" it means addition. when you use the word "less than" it means subtraction. when you use the word "product of" it means multiplication. when you use "quotient of" it mean division.

hope that helps, God bless! <span />

What's something that could go wrong if you use numbers that are not precise?​
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

There are a lot of things that can go wrong, especially when we have an error in a measure that we use a lot of times (each time, that error increases).

For example, you think that each meter of fence costs $5, but the actual price is $5.30, and you need 40 meters, then you think that you may need to pay:

40*$5 = $200

But they will actually charge you:

40*$5.30 = $212.

Now this is a small example, now let's go to medicine, suppose that you want to trait cancer with radiation in a pacient, if you do not use precise measures for the dosage of radiation or the measures of the tumor, you may cause a lot of damage in the patient. (And similar cases if you want to give some medication and the numbers that you use are not precise, you may overdose the patient)

So the use of precise numbers may be critical in a lot of scenarios.
