Plug in -3 for b, and 2 for a

2^3 - (-3)^2

Remember to always follow PEMDAS. First, do the exponents

2^3 = 2 x 2 x 2 = 8

(-3)^2 = -3 x -3 = 9

Subtract

8 - 9 = -1

-1 is your answer

hope this helps

Hello!

So let's first start out by solving the left side of the equation:

2 to the third power is 8

The right side now: -3 to the second power is -9

In total: 8- (-9)

So your answer is C) -1

I hope it helps!

Answer:

  f(x)=\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}3&\text{for}&-5\le x < 0\\1-x&\text{for}&0

Step-by-step explanation:

The left section is defined at x = -5, but not at x = 0, so the interval for that definition is -5 ≤ x < 0. The function value on that interval is constant: 3.

The right section is defined a x = 5, but not at x = 0, so the interval for that definition is 0 < x ≤ 5. That section is a straight line with a slope of -1 and a y-intercept of 1. The function value on that interval can be written -x+1.

Then the piecewise definition is ...

  f(x) = {3, for -5 ≤ x < 0; -x+1, for 0 < x ≤ 5}

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

An undefined slope means that the line is vertical and parallel to the y- axis.

A vertical line has equal x- coordinates of the points it passes through.

The only pair where the x- coordinates are equal are

(- 3, - 3) and (- 3, 3) ← undefined slope → C
