If g(x) = -5x + 13, find g(-1)

1 answer:

To solve this problem, we must substitute the value of -1 in for x in the function. This means that for every x there is in the equation, we must substitute the value -1 in for it in order to find the value of g(-1). This is modeled below:

g(x) = -5x + 13

g(-1) = -5(-1) + 13

Next, we must simplify using the order of operations. PEMDAS outlines this concept, telling us to simplify parentheses first, exponents next, then multiplication and division, and finally addition and subtraction. In this case, we will solve the multiplication and then the addition, as modeled below:

g(-1) = -5(-1) + 13

g(-1) = 5 + 13

g(-1) = 18

Therefore, your answer is 18.

Hope this helps!

Complete Question

Answer:

a

$n =290$

b

$n =129$

c

The correct option is D

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The margin of error is $E = 0.23$

The largest value is k = 15

The smallest value is u = 7

From the question we are told the confidence level is 95% , hence the level of significance is

$\alpha = (100 - 95 ) \%$

=> $\alpha = 0.05$

Generally from the normal distribution table the critical value of $\frac{\alpha }{2}$ is

$Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 1.96$

Generally population standard deviation estimate is mathematically represented as

$\sigma = \frac{Range }{4}$

Here the Range is mathematically represented as

$Range = k - u$

=> $Range = 15 - 7$

=> $Range = 8$

=> $\sigma = \frac{8 }{4}$

=> $\sigma = 2$

Generally the sample size is mathematically represented as

$n = [\frac{Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \sigma }{E} ] ^2$

=> $n = [1.96 * 2 }{0.23} ] ^2$

=> $n =290$

Generally to obtain a conservatively small sample size the population standard deviation estimate becomes

=> $\sigma = \frac{Range }{6}$

=> $\sigma = \frac{8 }{6}$

=> $\sigma =1.333$

Generally the conservatively small sample size is mathematically evaluated as

$n = [\frac{Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \sigma }{E} ] ^2$

=> $n = [1.96 * 1.333 }{0.23} ] ^2$

=> $n =129$

The answer is 9.0 because 8.5 is above 5 and to the nearest tenth it would be 9.0

-2m+4m+5=3
(-2m+4m)+(5)=3
2m+5=3
2m+5-5=3-5
2m=-2
2m/2=-2/2
