Answer: f(a-2) = 2a² - 14a + 28
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 2x² - 6x + 8
you can take a-2 and substitute it for each x, which would look like this:
f(a-2) = 2(a-2)² - 6(a-2) + 8
then distribute those in ( )
f(a-2) = 2a² - 8a + 8 - 6a + 12 + 8
combine like terms
f(a-2) = 2a² - 14a + 28
Some things you need to know:
1) You need to know how to convert standard form to slope y-int. form and slope y-int. form to standard form.
2) When two lines are parallel, the slopes are the same.
3) When two lines are perpendicular, the slopes are negative reciprocals of each other. (Or their product is -1)
example: 3/4 --> -4/3.
3/4 * -4/3 = -12/12 = -1
4) To find the value of b, substitute the point into the equation.
5) Convert the equation to slope y-int. form to find the slope.
6) When a line has an undefined slope, the slope y-int. will look either like
y = __ (forms horizontal line) or x = __ (forms vertical line).
To find the perpendicular of these lines, turn y to x / x to y.
To find the value of __, look at the point located in the line, so if x = ___
passes through (5,3), then x = 5 because x = 5 in the point. So the
equation would be x = 5.
Use online practice tests and other sources if you don't understand.
The formula for probability is # of favorable outcomes divided by the total number of outcomes.
So we know that there are a total of 5 letters. The child writes two letters, so we will have x/5 * x/5. Now, it is asking, what is the probability that they are both vowels.
We can see that a, i, and e are vowels, so the probability if the child were to write one letter would be 3/5. Since he is writing 2, you can multiply 3/5 * 3/5, which would give you your answer, 9/25. Therefore the probability that both letters are vowels is 9/25.
