Answer:
f(2b) = 4b^2 +4b +1
Step-by-step explanation:
Put 2b where x is and simplify.
f(2b) = (2b)^2 +2(2b) +1
f(2b) = 4b^2 +4b + 1

-9 -2
-5 -7
-1 -12
3 -17
ur x's all have a difference of 4, and ur y's all have a difference of -5...so yes, this is linear with a slope of (-7+2) / (-5 + 9) = -5/4
If you would like to solve the inequality x - 5/x < 4, you can do this using the following steps:
<span>x - 5/x < 4
</span>x^2 - 5 < 4x
x^2 - 4x - 5 < 0
(x - 5) * (x + 1) < 0
x < 0
1. x = 5
2. x = -1
The correct result would be x = -1.
