Answer:

f(-4) = -18

Step-by-step explanation:

f(-4) means x = - 4

So Plug in x = - 4 into f(x) = 3x - 6

f(-4) = 3(-4) - 6

= -12 - 6

= -18

f(-4) = -18

Answer:

D. -18

Step-by-step explanation:

f(-4)=3(-4)-6 Substitute -4 for x

f(-4)=-12-6 Multiply 3 and -4

f(-4)=-18 Subtract 6 from -12

After MM students took a test, there was a total of 64% of correct answers. If the test contains 50 questions, what is the least

Blizzard [7]

Answer:

3 Questions

Step-by-step explanation:

After MM students took a test, there was a total of 64% of correct answers.

The tests contained a total of 50 questions.

Number of questions gotten to score 64%= 64% X 50 = 32 questions

If the next student wants to score 70%, he has to score

70% of the total score = 70% X 50 = 35

Therefore the least number of question more the student has to get right

=35-32

= 3 questions

Caden states that n^2 +3n + 2n is an equivalent expression to 6n. Why is Caden's statement incorrect?

malfutka [58]

$\begin{gathered} \text{The simplification of n}^2+3n+2n\text{ is:} \\ i)n^2+5n \\ By\text{ collecting common term, this can be written in form of:} \\ ii)\text{ n(n+5)} \end{gathered}$

Thus, options A and D hold, from the simplifications above.

Let's consider the validity of the remaining options provided.

$\begin{gathered} \text{For option B)} \\ \text{substitute for n=1 into the expression n}^2+3n+2n,\text{ we have} \\ 1^2+3(1)+2(1)=1+3+2=6 \\ \text{substitute for n=1 into the expression 6n, we have} \\ 6(1)=6 \\ \text{Thus, the expression n}^2+3n+2n\text{ is equivalent to 6n, for n=1} \end{gathered}$ $\begin{gathered} \text{For option C)} \\ \text{The expression n}^2+3n+2n\text{ does not simplify to 7n} \end{gathered}$ $\begin{gathered} \text{For option E)} \\ \text{substitute for n=4 into the expression n}^2+3n+2n,\text{ we have:} \\ 4^2+3(4)+2(4)=16+12+8=36 \\ \text{substitute for n=6 into the expression 6n, we have:} \\ 6(4)=24 \\ \text{Thus, the two(2) expressions are not equivalent to each other, for n=4} \end{gathered}$ $\begin{gathered} \text{For option F)} \\ \text{substitute for n=3 into the expression n}^2+3n+2n,\text{ we have:} \\ 3^2+3(3)+2(3)=9+9+6=24 \\ \text{substitute for n=3 into the expression 6n, we have:} \\ 6(3)=18 \\ \text{Thus, the two(2) expressions are not equivalent to each other, for n=3} \end{gathered}$

Hence, the correct options that apply are options A, D, E and F
