Answer:

\huge\boxed{\text{A) -3}}

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of this equation when x=-2, we can substitute this value inside the equation and use PEMDAS to successfully find the value.

With the expression of 2x^2+4x-3, let's substitute -2 in as x.

  • 2(-2)^2 + 4(-2) - 3

Now let's follow PEMDAS to solve this equation.

PEMDAS states that when solving an expression/equation, the order we must follow is

  • Parentheses
  • Exponents
  • Multiplication/
  • Division
  • Addition/
  • Subtraction

We can now solve for this.

We see that exponents come before multiply and dividing. Therefore:

  • 2(-2)^2 = 2 \cdot (-2)^2 = 2 \cdot 4 = 8

So the value of our first term is 8.

Our second term will be 4 \cdot -2 = -8, and our last term will remain -3.

Adding these values together:

8 - 8 - 3 = -3

Therefore, the value of this expression when x = -2 is -3.

Hope this helped!

Q-35<br><br> Convert this equation to slope-intercept form: y+2= -4/17x + 12/7
Andru [333]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept)

given y + 2 = - \frac{4}{17} x + \frac{12}{7}

Subtract 2 from both sides

y = - \frac{4}{17} x + \frac{12}{7} - \frac{14}{7}

y = - \frac{4}{17} x - \frac{2}{7} ← in slope- intercept form
