$f(x)=2x^2+6x-4\\$

Find f(-5) by substituting x = -5 in the equation.

$f(-5)=2(-5)^2+6(-5)-4\\f(-5)=2(25)-30-4\\f(-5)=50-34\\f(-5)=16$

Therefore, the answer is f(-5) = 16

Answer:

f(-5)=126

Step-by-step explanation:

what you would do first is plug -5 in for x which would give you the equation of f(-5)= 2(-5)^2 + 6(-5) -4

then you multiply the negative 5 and you will get

f(-5)= -10^2 + 30 -4

remove that square by multiplying -10 by -10 and you will get

f(-5)= 100 + 30 -4

combine like terms and you will get

f(-5)=126

i hope this helped you and that i explained it to you in a way that you understand

What is the solution of 5 = t/2 -3?

Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

t=16

Step-by-step explanation:

you have to change the numbers to get just the variable.

we start from -3.

5=t/2-3

8=t/2

(we multiply by 2 instead of dividing)

8×2=16

t=16

Find the exact values of a) sec of theta b)tan of theta if cos of theta= -4/5 and sin<0

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

Using trigonometric ratio:

$\sec \theta = \frac{1}{\cos \theta}$

$\tan \theta = \frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta}$

From the given statement:

$\cos \theta = -\frac{4}{5}$ and sin < 0

⇒ $\theta$ lies in the 3rd quadrant.

then;

$\sec \theta = \frac{1}{-\frac{4}{5}} = -\frac{5}{4}$

Using trigonometry identities:

$\sin \theta = \pm \sqrt{1-\cos^2 \theta}$

Substitute the given values we have;

$\sin \theta = \pm\sqrt{1-(\frac{-4}{5})^2 } =\pm\sqrt{1-\frac{16}{25}} =\pm\sqrt{\frac{25-16}{25}} =\pm \sqrt{\frac{9}{25} } = \pm\frac{3}{5}$

Since, sin < 0

⇒ $\sin \theta = -\frac{3}{5}$

now, find $\tan \theta$ :

$\tan \theta = \frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta}$

Substitute the given values we have;

$\tan \theta = \frac{-\frac{3}{5} }{-\frac{4}{5} } = \frac{3}{5}\times \frac{5}{4} = \frac{3}{4}$

Therefore, the exact value of:

(a)

$\sec \theta =-\frac{5}{4}$

(b)

$\tan \theta= \frac{3}{4}$
