In the equation you have to replace all x's with -1
f (-1) = (-1)^2 - 8(-1) +5
f (-1) = 1 + 8 + 5
f (-1) = 14
the f(-1) stand for the function of -1. it is also equivalent to y
Answer:
Y=K×X...... equation
When,Y=8 and X=-5
To find the constant (K)
we substitute for K in the equation
8=K×-5
8=-5K divide both sides by -5
8÷-5=-5K÷-5
K=-1.6
A= P(1 + r) n (n to the power of)
<span>A= final balance </span>
<span>P= initial quantity </span>
<span>n= number of compounding periods </span>
<span>r= percentage interest rate </span>
<span>P= $200 </span>
<span>n= 9 years </span>
<span>r= 5%= 0.05 </span>
<span>=$200 (1 + 0.05)9 (power of) </span>
<span>=$310.26</span>
For this case we propose a system of equations:
x: Variable that represents the amount of hours that Olivia's mother drove
y: Variable that represents the amount of hours that Olivia's father drove
So, we have:
From the first equation we have:
Substituting in the second equation:
Thus, Olivia's father drove 3 hours.
Olivia's mother drove 11 hours.
