Answer: -31
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
f(x) = -x⁴ + 3x³ + x² - 8x - 16
f(3) = -(3)⁴ + 3(3)³ + (3)² - 8(3) - 16
= -81 + 81 + 9 - 24 - 16
= -31
When you cannot simplify it further. The terms have no common factor besides 1 and A plus C does not have two numbers that multiply to the total and equal C.
y = (2/3)x + 6
because the slope stays the same because it is parallel and to get the y intercept you plug in -3 for x into the equation (2/3)x +? =4 and ?=6 so that gives you the equation y = (2/3)x + 6
The second one is the right answer
