Ok, first put in the -2 for each b. That gives:
|-4(-2)-8|+|-1(-(-2))^2|+2(-2)^3
Let's do each section.
The first section is |-4(-2)-8)|
-4 times -2 is 8, minus 8 is 0. The absolute value of 0 is still 0.
Now we move on to |-1(-(-2))^2)|
First we do exponents
-(-2) is 2, and 2^2 is 4. 4 times -1 is -4. The absolute value of -4 is 4
Now the last section, 2(-2)^3
Exponents first: (-2)^3 is -2 * -2 * -2, which is -8.
-8*2=-16.
0+4+(-16)=-12
Well you can't actually find a number, but you can make an equation.
lets call the bag of candy x, and the number of students in the teachers class S.
she gives every student in her class 4 pieces, so to find that amount, we have to multiply the number of students in her class by 4, the pieces of candy. 4S
afterwards she has 48 pieces, which is the endpoint, x is the starting point because that's the amount of candy the teacher started with.
so your equation is x-4S=48, but the thing is, the question is looking for the amount of students she gave candy to, so we have to isolate S, or in easier words; put S on one side, and the numbers on the other.
so the equation is S=1/4x-12
Answer:
y=(-4/1)x-5
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to find the slope of the line and the y intercept, you can do this by plotting the points into a graph and figuring it out that way, or you can use the equations y2-y1/x2-x1 (for slope) and y=(*the slope from the other equation*)x+b. For both equations plug in a corresponding x and y coordinate given on the list (y1 and y2 would be consecutive coordinates, so 1 and 2, and same for x1 and x1, so -9 and -13). You should get (-4/1) for the slope, and when you plug that into the other equation you should get 5. Lastly you plug all these numbers into y=mx+b, and you get your answer.
Hope this helps :)
