Answer:
f(-2) = 0
f(0) = -4
f(4) = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the function f(x) = x^2 - 4, we must plug in the values substituting x for each of the answers.
f(-2) = (-2)^2 - 4
-2 times itself is a positive 4, therefore:
f(-2) = 4 - 4
f(-2) = 0
We do the same for each answer.
f(0) = (0)^2 - 4
f(0) = -4
f(4) = (4)^2 - 4
f(4) = 16 - 4
f(4) = 12
Note that they together ate all of the pizza.
Therefore the total fractions they ate should add up to 1.
By letting the fraction Jodie ate be x.
x + 2/5 + 1/4 = 1
x = 7/20
The answer is 7/20.
Answer:
h(x) = (x +1.5)^2 -20.25
Step-by-step explanation:
We assume you want to rearrange h(x)= x^2 +3x -18.
Recognize the coefficient of x is 3. Add and subtract the square of half that. (3/2)^2 = 9/4 = 2.25
h(x) = (x^2 +3x +2.25) -18 -2.25
Now, write the expression in parentheses as a square, simplify the constant.
h(x) = (x +1.5)^2 -20.25 . . . . . . . . vertex form
