Follow the PEMDAS
P-Parenthesis
E-Exponents
M/D-Multiplication/Division
A/S-Addition/Subtraction
clear the numerals in the parenthesis:
(5)²-(3)²
Now do the exponents:
=25-9
=16
Its just: (5)²-(3)²
Answer: f(12) = 137, f(-7) = 42
Step-by-step explanation: In a function, what you want to do is plug in the value they give you for x. This means you substitute x with the value they are looking for.
In this case, they are looking at 12 and -7. Let's do 12 first.
The equation becomes (12^2) - 7. 12^2 is 144, and 144-7 is 137.
Now we do -7. The equation becomes (-7)^2 - 7. -7^2 is 49, and 49 - 7 is 42.
Hope this helped!
Answer:
f(g(2)) = 44
Step-by-step explanation:
g(2) = 3(2) + 1 = 7
Plug 7 into f(x) since g(2) = 7
f(7) = 7² - 5 = 44
f(g(2)) = 44
Answer:
14
Step-by-step explanation:
Next time, please share the possible answer choices.
The absolute value of any quantity, whether it be a + or - quantity, is zero or positive.
Thus, |-14| = the absolute value of -14 = +14
