Answer: f(a-2) = 2a² - 14a + 28
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 2x² - 6x + 8
you can take a-2 and substitute it for each x, which would look like this:
f(a-2) = 2(a-2)² - 6(a-2) + 8
then distribute those in ( )
f(a-2) = 2a² - 8a + 8 - 6a + 12 + 8
combine like terms
f(a-2) = 2a² - 14a + 28
You have to do 3 2
--- + ---. You have to do 3 + 2 which is 5, and leave the
8 8 denominators the same, so the answer is 5/8.
If this is all the information you have, it is not enough to conclude the region is square. we need more information
(2.6 * 10^9) / (1.3 * 10^2) =
(2.6 / 1.3) * (10^9) / (10^2) =
2 * 10^7 or 20,000,000 <===
5/8 = 2/3 the entire box
Half of 2/3 is 1/3, and 2/3 + 1/3 = 1
So find half of 5/8 and add it to 5/8.
5/8 * 1/2 = 5/16
5/8 + 5/16
Change 5/8 to a fraction with a denominator of 16:
10/16 + 5/16 = 15/16
So the original weight is 15/16 pounds.
