Ok you just replace the x for a 2.
2(2)^4 - 8(2)^2 + 5(2) - 7
2(16) - 8(4) + 5(2) - 7
32 - 32 + 10 - 7
10 - 7
3
It's A. f(2) = 3.
Its d if you need an explanation I can tell you
21.
The angle has an opposite side of value 11 and an adjacent side of value x
We can then apply the formula tan 38° = opposite / adjacent
this gives us tan(38) = 11 / x
11/x = tan(38)
11 = x × tan(38)
x = 11 / tan(38)
x ≈ 14.1 (rounded to the nearest tenth)
And then we need to find the length of the hypotenuse, applying the theorem of Pythagoras. Let H be the hypotenuse, then :
H² = 14,1² + 11²
H² = 198,81 + 121
H = √(319,81)
H ≈ 17,9
Finally the area of the triangle will be (17,9 + 11) / 2 = 28,9 / 2 ≈ 14,45
You apply the same thing for 22 and 23
For 22 you use tan 55 = 15 / x
For 23 you use tan 23 = 7 / x
Good Luck !
A scale that multiplies the quantity you can right it as a proportion or fraction
Percussion
Percussion is music involving drums and other instruments such as gongs, bells, cymbals, rattles, and tambourines. The instruments themselves are also called percussion.
dual / duel
Seeing double? Not quite! Dual is two, or double, but a duel is a fight. If you’re getting sick of your fair-weather friend’s dual personality, perhaps you should throw down your glove and challenge him to a duel at high noon.
grisly / gristly / grizzly
Blood, guts, and man-eaters, oh my! Faint of heart turn back now! Grisly means relating to horror or disgust, gristly means related to gristle or cartilage, and grizzly is a big ol' bear. That can eat you.
precedent / president
How has the United States affected this word pair, precedent and president? Let's find out.
unconscionable / unconscious
These two words look and sound similar. In fact, if you think too hard about them together, you might find your tongue tripping over them.
