Find f(-2) f(x)=9x^2-5x+2
f(-2) means replace x in the equation with -2:
f(-2)=9(-2)^2-5(-2)+2
= 9(4) +10 + 2
= 36 +10 + 2
= 48
f(-2) = 48
Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
The exponent rules that apply are ...
(a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)
a^-b = (1/a)^b
(a^b)^c = a^(b·c)
_____
These let you rewrite the given function as ...
f(x) = (3^(2x))(3^1) = 3(3^(2x)) = 3(3^2)^x = 3·9^x
and
f(x) = 3^(2x+1) = (3^-1)^(-(2x+1)) = (1/3)^-(2x+1)
1/6(36 + 1/2) = 6 + 1/12 = 72/12 + 1/12 = 73/12
Answer:
1st one a^-1 , 2nd one a^b/a^c , 3rd one a^c/b^c
