The function is
f(x) = 12/(4x+2)
Note the use of parenthesis to indicate that 12 is dividing over all of "4x+2"

Plug in x = -1 and use PEMDAS to simplify
f(x) = 12/(4x+2)
f(-1) = 12/(4(-1)+2) ... every x is replaced with -1
f(-1) = 12/(-4+2)
f(-1) = 12/(-2)
f(-1) = -6

Answer: -6

Tom has 2 8-foot long boards he needs to cut pieces that are 15 inches long. How many 15 inch pieces can he cut from the two boa
Ksju [112]

Answer:

Tom can cut 12 (15 inch pieces) from the two boards.

Step-by-step explanation:

We're first given foot measurements and we're asked to find the answer in inches. That means we must convert 8 feet to inches, which is a 1:12 inches conversion. 8 times 12 will give you 96, so now you will multiply that value by 2 because Tom has 2 8-foot long boards. That will give you 192 inches. Since the question is asking for 'how many 15 inch pieces he can cut from the two boards?', you will need to divide 192 inches by 15 to find the answer. This will give you 12.8 boards. Because you can't have parts of an object, the answer will be 12 whole boards.

The length of a rectangle is five times its width.
Marizza181 [45]

ANSWER

96 yd

EXPLANATION

Let the width of the rectangle be w, then, the length of the rectangle will be:

l = 5w

The area of a rectangle is calculated using the formula:

Area=l \times w

Area=5w \times w

Area=5 {w}^{2}

It was given that, the area of the rectangle is 320yd²

320=5 {w}^{2}

Divide both sides by 5.

64 =  {w}^{2}

Take square root of both sides to get:

w = 8yd

This means the length is

l = 5 \times 8 = 40yd

The perimeter of a rectangle is given by:

P=2(w+l)

We plug in the values to get:

P=2(40 + 8) = 2 \times 48 = 96yd

The perimeter is 96yd

Answer:

The table is:

x        y

1         1

2        5

3        9

The graph B shows the relationship y=4x-3

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to fill the table using the rule:

To find y multiply x by 4 and then subtract 3.

Writing rule in mathematical form:

y=4x-3

Now for completing the table we need to put x=1,2 and 3 and find values of y

For x=1//y=4x-3\\ y=4(1)-3\\ y=4-3\\ y=1\\

For \ x=2\\y=4x-3\\ y=4(2)-3\\ y=8-3\\ y=5

For \ x=3\\y=4x-3\\ y=4(3)-3\\ y=12-3\\ y=9

So, the table is:

x        y

1         1

2        5

3        9

The graph B shows the relationship y=4x-3
