You can either convert -3 into a fraction, or convert -2/5 into a decimal so you can solve this.
If you decide to convert -3, into a fraction, it would be -3/1, and you'd have to multiply that by the reciprocal of -2/5.
So, you'd have -3/1(-5/2)=15/2, which can be simplified to 7 1/2.
If you decide to convert -2/5 into a decimal, you would get -0.4. You would then divide -3 by -0.4, which is equal to 7.5.
Both 7.5 and 7 1/2 are correct answers, and if you were to convert 7.5 into a fraction and 7 1/2 into a decimal, you would notice that they are the same number, but in different forms.

Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
Put the value where the variable is and do the arithmetic.
f(-3) = (-3)² -2(-3) = 9 +6
f(-3) = 15
200,000 because the numbers in the middle are low
Change 55% to 0.55
0.55 x 2900 = 1595
