Answer: 0.0001408
Step-by-step explanation:
F(x) = x^2 - 3x - 8
f(-2) = (-2)^2 - 3 (-2) - 8
f(-2) = 4 - 3 (-2) - 8
f(-2) = 4 + 6 - 8
f(-2) = 10 - 8
f(-2) = 2 ✅
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
For this sort of problem, there can be an infinite number of answers.
It can be convenient to choose one of the simpler answers by looking at the operations that are performed on the variable. Here, you have ...
- 2 multiplies it
- 4 is added to the product
- the square root is taken
- 8 is divided by that root
You can work from the bottom up and define the outer function (f(x)) to be any of these operations. In our answer above, we have elected to include the "square root" and the "8 divided by that root" in our definition of f.
Then our function g takes care of the other operations.
Answer:
Equation: 7x - 23 = 25 + x
Solution: x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
7x - 23 = 25 + x
1. Subtract 25 from both sides:
7x - 23 - 25 = 25 - 25 + x
7x - 48 = x
2. Subtract 7x from both sides to get x on one side:
7x - 7x - 48 = x - 7x
- 48 = -6x
3. Divide both sides by -6 to get x by itself:
8 = x
8 is the solution
