Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 2x^3 - 4x.....find f(-2).....so sub in -2 for x
f(-2) = 2(-2^3) - 4(-2)
f(-2) = 2(-8) + 8
f(-2) = -16 + 8
f(-2) = -8 <==
Answer:
1. CYNARG
Step-by-step explanation:
This a example of Caesar's Cipher, in which each letter in the original word leads to a ciphered letter according to the following equation:

In which C is the index of the Ciphered letter in the alphabet, P is the index of the original letter and o is the offset.
Finding the offset:
O is coded B
O is the 15th letter in the alphabet, so
.
B is the 2nd letter in the alphabet, so 




So

PLANET:
P
P is the 16th letter in the alphabet.

So P is coded C.
L
L is the 12th letter in the alphabet:

L is coded Y(25th letter in the alphabet)
A
A is the 1st letter in the alphabet

A is coded N
N
N is the 14th letter in the alphabet

N is coded A
E
E is the 5th letter in the alphabet

E is coded R
So the correct answer is:
1. CYNARG
Step-by-step explanation:
Increase the number by 5% of its value.
Percentage increase = 5% × 220
New value =
220 + Percentage increase =
220 + (5% × 220) =
220 + 5% × 220 =
(1 + 5%) × 220 =
(100% + 5%) × 220 =
105% × 220 =
105 ÷ 100 × 220 =
105 × 220 ÷ 100 =
23,100 ÷ 100 =
231
