What is the value of f(-2) for the given function
1 answer:
Copy down the given function:
f(x)=3•2^x
Now replace both instances of x with -2:
f(-2) = 3*2^(-2). 1
Recall that 2^(-2) is the same as ------ = 1/4
2^2
Therefore, f(-2) = 3*2^(-2) = 3*(1/4) = 3/4
Remember that exponentiation has to be carried out before multiplication. That's why I did 2^(-2) before multiplying by 3.

C = 15x + 50 let c be $125 since c represents the cost 15x + 50 = 125 15x = 125 - 50 15x = $75 x = 75 ÷ 15 x = 5
(4/5)*what = (2/3) Multiply by 5/4 .. what = (2/3)*(5/4) .. what = 5/6
Since its telling you that x is the number of years and the question is "How much does the cost of milk increase EVERY YEAR" then you can conclude that the cost is increasing by 0.25 each year
