Answer:
Yes, -13 is less than f/2.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we are given a fraction with a variable, it may seem hard at first to find out which number is greater.
First, we have to realise that -13 is a negative number. Any negative number is always equal to less than a positive number.
Whatever number we replace our variable f with, whether it be 2, 3, 9, or 0.00000000000001, we can rest assure that it will be a <em>positive</em> number.
Since positive numbers are greater than negative ones, -13 has to be less than f/2.
If the fraction was negative (- f/2), this would be a nearly impossible question to answer.

Answer:
in order by function: 0.6, 8, 7/3, 2, 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
The functions are given in the form ...
f(x) = a·b^x
The "b" value is the value immediately to the left of the exponent. (It's not rocket science; it's pattern matching.) Note that the minus sign in g(x) is part of 'a', not part of 'b'.
From the top-down, the functions listed on the left have the b-values shown above.

= (n)(2) + (7)(2)
=2n+14
Answer: the 5 in the parentheses on the second line should be negative. Also, where did the 23 go?? That's a mistake too.
Step-by-step explanation: 3 - 8 = -5 so
23(2 - 4) + 5(3 - 8)
23(-2) + 5(-5)
(-46) + (-25)
-71
(at least, I think so unless there was a mistake in the equation)
