4 0

Answer:

  1. increase
  2. decrease
  3. increase

Step-by-step explanation:

  • A sales tax is ALWAYS an increase. That's why governments use sales taxes.
  • A discount is ALWAYS a decrease. That's it's definition. You are being given a break.
  • A tip is meant to supplement the pay someone gets. It's an increase from your point of view.

Given the following function, find f(-2), f(0), and f(4).
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

f(-2) = 0

f(0) = -4

f(4) = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function f(x) = x^2 - 4, we must plug in the values substituting x for each of the answers.

f(-2) = (-2)^2 - 4

-2 times itself is a positive 4, therefore:

f(-2) = 4 - 4

f(-2) = 0

We do the same for each answer.

f(0) = (0)^2 - 4

f(0) = -4

f(4) = (4)^2 - 4

f(4) = 16 - 4

f(4) = 12
