Answer:
z = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
we use the method
(x^a)^b = x^(a*b)
so
(q^4)^z = q^(4*z)
now
4*z = 12
z = 12 / 4
so
z = 3
These are pretty easy once you get the concept.
think of <em>random letter</em> (x) as the term y, so in the case of p(x)=-3+4x, its just asking what is y when x equals all those values.
so p(-2) = -3 + 4(-2), since its asking to plug in -2 for x, which equals -11
p(0) = -3 + 4(0)
= -3
p(5) = -3 + 4(5)
= 17
