Left to Right

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

f(x) = 6x² - 2x + 2

f(-1) is x = -1

Step 2: Evaluate

Substitute in x: f(-1) = 6(-1)² - 2(-1) + 2
Exponents: f(-1) = 6(1) - 2(-1) + 2
Multiply: f(-1) = 6 + 2 + 2
Add: f(-1) = 8 + 2
Add: f(-1) = 10

Laura has a step of 50cm She walks along by taking two steps forward and one step back. What is the least number of steps counti

Vilka [71]

Answer:

The least number of steps she takes to reach 20 m is 118 steps

Step-by-step explanation:

For Laura, the length of a walking step = 50 cm = 0.5 m

The repeating number of steps she takes = Two steps forward one step backwards

The number of forward steps it would take for her to reach 20 m = (20 m)/(0.5 m) = 40 steps

Given that she always takes two steps forward and one step backwards, we have;

The number of steps forward every three steps = 2 step forward + (-1) step (backward)

The number of steps forward every three steps = 2 - 1 = 1 step forward

To reach 39 steps forward, she would need 39 × 3 = 117 steps

To get to the 40 steps she needs just a step forward, making the total number of steps to reach 40 steps = 117 + 1 = 118 steps

Therefore, the least number of steps she takes to reach 20 m = 118 steps.

How are the following three expressions different from each other, if needed they are? Do not just state the value of each but e

Advocard [28]

Answer:

2 and 3 are same since in both the cases we need to square 2 only not the negative 1 in it

1 is not same to 2 and 3 since in 1 we need to square 2 and negative 1 in it also.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the three expressions different from each other

We are supposed to find what may be same or different.

1) $(-2)^2$

$\Rightarrow (-1)^2 \times (2)^2\\\Rightarrow -1 \times -1 \times 2 \times 2 \\\Rightarrow 4$

2) $-2^2$

$\Rightarrow -1 \times 2^2\\\Rightarrow -1 \times 2 \times 2 \\\Rightarrow -4$

3) $-(2)^2$

$\Rightarrow -1 \times (2)^2\\\Rightarrow -1 \times 2 \times 2 \\\Rightarrow -4$

Now 2 and 3 are same since in both the cases we need to square 2 only not the negative 1 in it

1 is not same to 2 and 3 since in 1 we need to square 2 and negative 1 in it also.
