Answer:

f(-2) = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

well we can express f(x) as follows

$f(x) = (x+2)Q(x)\\\\$

we don't need the value of q(x) (for this exercise)

now evaluate when x = -2

$f(-2)=(-2+2)Q(-2)\\\\f(-2)=0(Q(-2))\\\\f(-2) = 0$

11/15 minus 1/3 in simplified form

Mrac [35]

Answer:

$\frac{2}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{11}{15} - \frac{1}{3} \\ \frac{11}{15} - \frac{1 \times 5}{3 \times 5} \\ \frac{11}{15} - \frac{5}{15} \\ \frac{6}{15} \\ \frac{6 \div 3}{15 \div 3} \\ \frac{2}{5}$

Jeremy’s fruit stand sells peaches and watermelons. In the first hour the fruit stand is open, 12 bushels of peaches and 5 water

polet [3.4K]

We define the variables:
p: cost of bushel of peaches
w: cost of watermelon
We wrote the system of equations:
12p + 5w = 150
15p + 8w = 198
We can represent the system in matrix form as
Ax = b
Where,
A = [12 5; 15 8]
b = [150; 198]
x = [p; w]

Find the volume of the cone. Use 3.14 for n. Round to the nearest tenth.

enyata [817]

Answer:

$1590.6cm {}^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$volume \: of \: a \: cone \: v = \frac{1}{3}\pi \: r {}^{2} h \\ radius = \frac{diameter}{2} = \frac{15}{2} = 7.5 \\ v = \frac{1}{3} \times 3.42 \times (7.5) {}^{2} \times 27 \\ v = \frac{3.142 \times 7.5 \times 7.5 \times 27}{3} \\ v = \frac{4771.9125}{3} = 1590.6375 \\ v = 1590.6cm {}^{3} (approximatly) \\ please \: rate \: and \: mark \: brainliest$

In circle O, ST is a diameter.

Andreas93 [3]

The value of x must be 25.0. The correct option is the second option- 25.0

<h3>Solving Linear equations </h3>

From the question, we are to determine the value of x

From the given diagram, we can write that

m ∠SOR + m ∠UOR + m ∠TOU = 180° (<em>Sum of angles on a straight line</em>)

∴ (2x +8)° + (3x - 14)° + (3x -14)° = 180°

2x° + 8° + 3x° -14° + 3x° -14° = 180°

Collect like terms

2x° + 3x° + 3x° + 8° - 14° -14° = 180°

8x° -20° = 180°

8x° = 180° + 20°

8x° = 200°

x = 200/8

x = 25.0

Hence, the value of x must be 25.0. The correct option is the second option- 25.0
