13.4 = 13.40
This is because the 0 at the end is a trailing decimal, and so when testing for inequalities, you can simply disregard it.

Answer:
-24
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 3x^3 -12x^2
f(2) = 3 * (2)^3 - 12 (2)^2
= 3 (8) - 12 (4)
= 24 - 48
= -24
If you're looking for the solution to the system of equations, here's how we solve using substitution
We know that y = x - 1, so we can plug that into the first equation giving
2x - 3(x-1) = -1
Now distribute the 3 giving 2x - 3x + 3 = -1. After combining like terms we get -x + 3 = -1. Now subtract 3 from both sides, -x = -4, and multiply both sides by -1 to make x positive. x = 4
Now we can plug that into the second equation to get y
y = x - 1, and we know that x = 4, so y = 4 - 1, y = 3. The solution is (4, 3)
