f(x) = x² - 4x + 3
f(-1) = (-1)² - 4(-1) + 3
f(-1) = 1 + 4 + 3
f(-1) = 5 + 3
f(-1) = 8

Whats the equation? but when ever you see f( ), what ever is in the parenthesis just plug into x

Answer: 22.87 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

15+7+0.87= 22.87

(Had to round the number bc the real answer would have too many numbers, so hopefully this still works. The original one was 22.875)

For the following exercises, evaluate the function at the indicated values: f (−3); f (2); f (−a); −f (a); f (a + h).

ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

5. f(x) = -2x² + 3x

f(-3) = -2(-3)² + 3(-3) = -27

f(2) = -2(2)² + 3(2) = -2

f(-a) = -2(-a)² + 3(-a) = -2a² - 3a

-f(a) = -[-2a² + 3a] = 2a² - 3a

f(a + h) = -2(a + h)² + 3(a + h) = -2(a² + 2ah + h²) + 3a + 3h = -2a² - 4ah - 2h² + 3a + 3h

6. f(x) = 2|3x - 1|

f(-3) = 2|3(-3) - 1| = 2*10 = 20

f(2) = 2|3(2) - 1| = 2*5 = 10

f(-a) = 2|3(-a) - 1| = 2|-3a - 1|

-f(a) = -(2|3a - 1|) = -2|3a - 1|

f(a + h) = 2|3(a + h) - 1| = 2|3a + 3h - 1|

Help!! 50 points and brainliest!

Viktor [21]

Answer:

Second choice:

$x=2t$

$y=4t^2+4t-3$

Fifth choice:

$x=t+1$

$y=t^2+4t$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's look at choice 1.

$x=t+1$

$y=t^2+2t$

I'm going to subtract 1 on both sides for the first equation giving me $x-1=t$ . I will replace the $t$ in the second equation with this substitution from equation 1.

$y=(x-1)^2+2(x-1)$

Expand using the distributive property and the identity $(u+v)^2=u^2+2uv+v^2$ :

$y=(x^2-2x+1)+(2x-2)$

$y=x^2+(-2x+2x)+(1-2)$

$y=x^2+0+-1$

$y=x^2$

So this not the desired result.

Let's look at choice 2.

$x=2t$

$y=4t^2+4t-3$

Solve the first equation for $t$ by dividing both sides by 2:

$t=\frac{x}{2}$ .

Let's plug this into equation 2:

$y=4(\frac{x}{2})^2+4(\frac{x}{2})-3$

$y=4(\frac{x^2}{4})+2x-3$

$y=x^2+2x-3$

This is the desired result.

Choice 3:

$x=t-3$

$y=t^2+2t$

Solve the first equation for $t$ by adding 3 on both sides:

$x+3=t$ .

Plug into second equation:

$y=(x+3)^2+2(x+3)$

Expanding using the distributive property and the earlier identity mentioned to expand the binomial square:

$y=(x^2+6x+9)+(2x+6)$

$y=(x^2)+(6x+2x)+(9+6)$

$y=x^2+8x+15$

Not the desired result.

Choice 4:

$x=t^2$

$y=2t-3$

I'm going to solve the bottom equation for $t$ since I don't want to deal with square roots.

Add 3 on both sides:

$y+3=2t$

Divide both sides by 2:

$\frac{y+3}{2}=t$

Plug into equation 1:

$x=(\frac{y+3}{2})^2$

This is not the desired result because the $y$ variable will be squared now instead of the $x$ variable.

Choice 5:

$x=t+1$

$y=t^2+4t$

Solve the first equation for $t$ by subtracting 1 on both sides:

$x-1=t$ .

Plug into equation 2:

$y=(x-1)^2+4(x-1)$

Distribute and use the binomial square identity used earlier:

$y=(x^2-2x+1)+(4x-4)$

$y=(x^2)+(-2x+4x)+(1-4)$

$y=x^2+2x+-3$

$y=x^2+2x-3$ .

This is the desired result.
