$p(x)=2x^4-3x^2+x-1\\\\
Substitude\ p=-1\ into\ equation\\\\
p(-1)=2x^4-3x^2+x-1=2*(-1)^4-3(-1)^2-1-1=\\2*1-3*1-2=2-3-2=-3\\Answer\ p(-1)=-3$

In one day, the stock price for Warbucks Coffee rose from $50 to $57 per share. By what percent did this stock price rise?

egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

14%

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The formula to find percent change is $\frac{(V_2-V_1)}{|V_1|} * 100$ . Now, all we have to do is plug in the values to their corresponding variable.

2. (Solving)

$\frac{(57-50)}{|50|} * 100$
$\frac{7}{50} *100$

$0.14 * 100$
14%

Write an equation for the perimeter of the rectangle

jeka94

Answer:

Area = 2(5x - 4) + 2(5x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter is the sum of twice the width and twice the length of the rectangle. And since the question is asking us for an equation, we need to write, Area = 2(5x - 4) + 2(5x). When you are required to find the value of x with a given area, just plug that area into the equation, distribute, and simplify to get x.

Answer the following True or False:

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

False; consider as a counterexample the function f : ℝ→ℝ defined by

$f(x)=\begin{cases}-3&\text{for }x\neq2\\0&\text{for }x=2\end{cases}$

Clearly f approaches -3 as x gets closer to -2, but neither limit from either side is equal to the function's value at x = 2 (that is, -3 ≠ 0), so f is not continuous.
