We are given order pairs : (2, 6), (3, 21), (4, 42), (5, 69)
The correct option is D) f(x) = 3x^2 - 6.
If we plug x=2 we get
f(2) = 3(2)^2 - 6 = 3(4) -6 = 12-6 =6. Represents (2,6)
If we plug x=3 we get
f(3) = 3(3)^2 - 6 = 3(9) -6 = 27-6 =21 Represents (4,21)
If we plug x=4 we get
f(4) = 3(4)^2 - 6 = 3(16) -6 = 48-6 =42. Represents (4,42)
If we plug x=5 we get
f(5) = 3(5)^2 - 6 = 3(25) -6 = 75-6 =69. Represents (5,69)
Therefore, D ) f(x) = 3x^2 - 6 is our correct option.
Hey there!
G(x) = 3x + 1
G(-2)
They just ask you to insert the value of -2 instead of x
= (-2)(3) + 1
G(-2)= -5
Answer:
A. Between 3.0 and 3.5 and between 4.0 and 4.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The zeroes of a function occur whenever a value of x returns zero. To predict where the zeroes lie, determine the interval(s) where the function crosses the x-axis. This occurs when either 
goes from a negative value to a positive value or vice versa.
From 
and 
, the y-values go from 4.0 (positive) to -0.2 (negative), respectively. Therefore, there must be a zero in this interval.
From 
and 
, the y-values go from -0.8 (negative) to 0.1 (positive), respectively. Therefore, there must also be a zero in this interval.
Thus, the zeros of this function occur between 3.0 and 3.5 and between 4.0 and 4.5, leading to answer choice A.
Question:
What is the equation for the following statement,"One-half of a number decreased by 3 is 21.
Answer:
<em>half the number = x/2 </em>
<em>decreased by 3 </em>
<em>(x/2) -3 =21</em>
<em>=48</em>
