Irrational is the correct answer
You just substitute the value of x in the given equation:
f(x) = 2x^2 - 5
f(-4) = 2 (-4)^2 -5 = 27
f(x) : a name given to the equation
f(-4): refer to the equation when the value of the independent variable x has the value between the brackets.
Answer:
B. 
Step-by-step explanation:
The given quadratic trinomial is;

Comparing this to
, we have a=5,b=17,c=6.

Two factors of 30 that add up to 17 is 15 and 2.
We split the middle term to obtain;

We factor by grouping;

Factor further

The correct answer is B.
Answer:
Sample Response: To write a two-variable equation, I would first need to know how much Maya’s allowance was. Then, I would need the cost of playing the arcade game and of riding the Ferris wheel. I could let the equation be cost of playing the arcade games plus cost of riding the Ferris wheel equals the total allowance. My variables would represent the number of times Maya played the arcade game and the number of times she rode the Ferris wheel. With this equation I could solve for how many times she rode the Ferris wheel given the number of times she played the arcade game.
Answer:
