The error is that the numbers are not in order from least to greatest.
To find the median of data you need to first put the numbers in order from least to greatest.
There are an infinite number of possibilities, and not enough information
to decide which possibility is really the one inside the function machine.
Here are a few. Each of these gives the result that you described,
and there are an infinite number of others:
f(x) = x
f(x) = 2x + 1
f(x) = 10x + 9
f(x) = x² - 2
f(x) = 7x² - 8
f(x) = 31x³ + 30
f(x) = log( |x| ) - 1
f(x) = ln( |x| ) - 1
f(x) = x tan(45°)
.
.
etc.
The distributive property means to distribute the number being multiplied by the numbers in the parentheses.
In this case, (v+12) is being multiplied by 10.
To solve this, you simply have to multiply 10 by each term inside the parentheses.
That means it would be (v•10)+(12•10).
(v•10) is equal to 10v, since v is the variable and we don't know its value.
(12•10) is equal to 120.
So by using the distributive property we can find that (v+12)10 = 10v+120.
Answer:
yes because -3x4 would be negative 3 four times, reseulting in a negative number
