<h3>Given</h3>
... f(x) = x² -4x +1
<h3>Find</h3>
... a) f(-8)
... b) f(x+9)
... c) f(-x)
<h3>Solution</h3>
In each case, put the function argument where x is, then simplify.
a) f(-8) = (-8)² -4(-8) +1 = 64 +32 + 1 = 97
b) f(x+9) = (x+9)² -4(x+9) +1
... = x² +18x +81 -4x -36 +1
... f(x+9) = x² +14x +46
c) f(-x) = (-x)² -4(-x) +1
... f(-x) = x² +4x +1

you have a 29 of 38 chance at lossing
Answer:
-x<3 is the same as x>-3 because when you divide -x<3 by -1 on both sides it ends up as x>-3. (They're the same thing just one isn't simplified.)

Step-by-step explanation:
The largest possible ellipse will have a semi-minor axis of 2 feet and a semi-major axis of 4 feet. If we center the board on the origin of the cartesian coordinate plane, we can derive the location of the foci and thus, the length of string he will need:
x^2 / 16 + y^2 / 4 = 1
Vertices:
(-4 , 0) , (4 , 0)
(0 , -2) , (0 , 2)
