Solve the equation −2w+4=−12. URGENT Solution
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

The solution is w=8

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

-2w+4=-12

Solve for w

That means -----> isolate the variable w

Subtract 4 both sides

-2w+4-4=-12-4

-2w=-16

Divide by -2 both sides

-2w/-2=-16/-2

w=8

Please solve for all three parts of the question.
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

f(-5) = 25

f(0) = -2

f(5) = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the functions;

To get f(-5), we will use the function of x where x is less than 0 since -5 is less than zero

at where x < 0, f(x) = x^2

f(-5) = (-5)^2

f(-5) = 25

b) For f(0), where the point where x = 0, f(x)= -2

Hence the value of f(o) = -2

c) For f(5), the function where x > 5 is f(x) = 2x+6

f(x) = 2x+6

f(5) = 2(5)+6

f(5) = 16
