Find f(-2) f(x)=9x^2-5x+2
f(-2) means replace x in the equation with -2:
f(-2)=9(-2)^2-5(-2)+2
= 9(4) +10 + 2
= 36 +10 + 2
= 48
f(-2) = 48
Answer:
the area of the mat = total area added minus the original area of the water color painting.
length of the mat is:
L = 21 in + 3 in + 3 in because 3 in is added to each side
L = 27 inwidth of the mat is:w = 11 in + 3 in + 3 inw = 17in
Area mat = (27 in x 17 in) - ( 21 in x 27 in)
area mat = 108 sq in is the area of the mat
Every day, it increases by 8 inches. We know that it started at 16 inches.
We can construct an equation with this information.
Equation: 16+8x=h
h=Height
x=Days
Plug in 12 for x:
16+96=h
h=112 inches
Answer: The plant will be 112 inches tall in 12 days.
