Evaluate the given expression at x= -4<br> -3x + 2x^2 + 2

Mkey [24]

Answer:

$\huge{ \boxed{ \bold{ \text{46}}}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

If the value of variables of algebraic expression are given, the value of the term or expression can easily obtained by replacing the variables with numbers.

$\text{ \underline{ Given}} : \text{x = - 4}$

$\text{ \underline{ To \: find}} : \sf{value \: of \: - 3x + 2 {x}^{2} + 2}$

$\text{ Plug \: the \: value \: of \: x}$

$➝ \: \sf{ - 3 * (- 4 )+ 2 * {( - 4)}^{2} + 2}$

$\text{Remember!} : \text{Multiplying \: a \: negative \: integer \: by \: negative \: integer \: gives \: a \: positive \: integer.}$

➝ $\sf{12 + 2 * {( - 4)}^{2} + 2}$

$\text{Evaluate \: the \: power}$

➝ $\text{12 + 2 * 16 + 2}$

$\text{Multiply \: the \: numbers}$

➝ $\text{12 + 32 + 2}$

$\text{Add \: the \: numbers}$

$➝ \boxed { \text{46}}$

A chemist mixes a 10% hydrogen peroxide solution with a 25% hydrogen peroxide solution to create 30 liters of a 15% hydrogen per

FromTheMoon [43]

Your two equations are at the top, in the box is what each variable represents. Below the box is total liters of the 15%, which is going to equal the total liters for 10% plus the total liters for 25%. Make your percentages into decimals. There’s a total of 30 liters so, x+y needs to equal 30. Isolate a variable, I chose y, you can do either or (isolating x would be more math). Y is going to equal 30-x, substitute that for the Y in the second equation, then you need to distribute 0.25 into 30-x. Then it’s simple math, subtract 7.50 from both sides, add like gets, divide both sides by -0.15, making x=20.
