Explanation:
1. Identify the different constellations of variables. Here there are three:
2. Combine coefficients of each of the different variable constellations:
(8.1 -2.8)b +(6.7 +0.9)a +(2.5 +7)
5.3b +7.8a +9.5
3. Perform any other operations that might be required depending on the sort of equivalent wanted. For example, one could write ...
5.3(b +(78/53)a) +9.5 . . . . . . . shows the weight of a relative to b
I don't know if I did it right but here's my guess. I think you multiply 7 by 20% and that gives you 1.40 as a result. Compared to the other method I used (division), I'm pretty sure I'm right since the other result was 35. Doesn't make sense if the end amount was $7.
Answer:
f ( - 2 ) = - 12
Step-by-step explanation:
f ( - 2 ) = - 3 ( -2 )^2
then you do the exponent first so
- 3 ( 4 )
now you multpily the - 3 and 4
you get - 12
