Answer:

C. -11

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = -2x - 5

Plug the 3 in for x

f(3) = -2(3) - 5

Multiply the -2 and 3

f(3) = -6 - 5

Subtract 5 from -6

f(3) = -11

Answer: C -11

Step-by-step explanation:

Its asking you to solve for f(x) which is Y

Y=-2x-5

X is 3

so replace -2x with 3 but only the x

you should get -23 not negative 23 its more of 2 times 3

then multiply -2 by 3 and get -6

add -6 and -5 to get -11

Emily gives her bird 1/8 cup of bird seeds along with 1/3 cup of grains each day. How much food is given each day to the bird

ANEK [815]

Answer:

11/24 cup

Step-by-step explanation:

What you would do is add 1/8 plus 1/3. To add two fractions, each much have the same denominator. In this case, you would need to multiply 1/8 into 3/24 by multiplying 1/8 by 3 on the denominator and numerator. For 1/3, multiply each the numerator and denominator by 8 getting the fraction 8/24. Now you can line up each fraction and add the numerators, keeping the denominator at 24. That answer would be 11/24. This cannot be simplified, so the answer is 11/24 cup of food.

Whenever you are confused with assignments, it is best to tell your parent to help you or teacher the next day. Hope this helps though!
