Evaluate the function
g(x) = 2x2 + 3x – 5 for the input values -2, 0, and 3.
This is tedious math work but necessary to sharpen your skills.
Let x = -2
g(-2) = 2(-2)^2 + 3(-2) – 5
g(-2) = 2(4) - 6 - 5
g(-2) = 8 - 11
g(-2) = -3
Now let x = 0 and repeat the process.
g(0) = 2(0)^2 + 3(0) - 5
g(0) = 0 + 0 - 5
g(0) = -5
Lastly, let x = 3.
g(3) = 2(3)^2 + 3(3) - 5
g(3) = 2(9) + 9 - 5
g(3) = 18 + 9 - 5
g(3) = 27 - 5
g(3) = 22

w + 4

l l
l l w

Perimeter would be the sum of all the sides so: (w+4) + w + (w+4) + w
Perimeter is 60 yards according to your problem so: (w+4) + w + (w+4) + w = 60 yds
1.Simplify/combine like terms:
w + 4 + w + w + 4 + w =
4w + 8 =
Now it's a 2-step algebra equation
4w + 8 = 60
2.Subtract 8 on both sides
4w = 56
3.Divide both sides by 4
w = 14
