Answer:
P(-2) = 2(-2^4) - 5(-2^3) + (-2) -10
= 2(16) - 5(-8) + (-2) - 10
= 32+40-2-10
= 60
P(1) = 2(1^4) - 4(1^3) + (1) - 10
= 2 - 4 + 1 - 10
= -11
P(2). = 2(2^4) - 5(2^3) + (2) - 10
= 2(16) - 5(8) + 2 - 20
= 32-40+2-10
= -20
y = -3/2x + 1 would work lol
Answer:
3 and 4
Step-by-step explanation:
divide 120 by 36
120/36 = 3.33
3.33 is between 3 and 4
Let's convert the word descriptions into mathematical equations first for illustration.
f(x) = x^2 - x - 12
g(x) = -2.5x - 2
Then, we equate g(x) and f(x). The final equation becomes
x^2 - x - 12 = -2.5x - 2
Then, we simplify by transposing and combining like terms.
x^2 - x + 2.5x -12 + 2 = 0
x^2 + 1.5x - 10 = 0
Since this is a quadratic equation, we find the roots by using the quadratic formula
where a = 1, b = 1.5 and c=-10
Thus, the answer is x = 2.5, -4.
You would want to divide 216 by 18 and by doing that you would get 12.
