Answer:

f(- 4) = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

To evaluate f(- 4) substitute x = - 4 into f(x) , that is

f(- 4) = - 8 - 5(- 4) = - 8 + 20 = 12

f(x)=-8-5x

$\\ \rm\longmapsto f(-4)$

Put -4 inplace of x

$\\ \rm\longmapsto -8-5(-4)$

$\\ \rm\longmapsto -8+20$

$\\ \rm\longmapsto 12$

Solve the systems of equations. <br>

rewona [7]

Answer:

x = -1 and y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve 3x+3y=−6;−x+y=0

Steps:

I will solve your system by substitution.

−x+y=0;3x+3y=−6

Step: Solve−x+y=0for y:

−x+y+x=0+x(Add x to both sides)

y=x

Step: Substitutexforyin3x+3y=−6:

3x+3y=−6

3x+3x=−6

6x=−6(Simplify both sides of the equation)

−6

(Divide both sides by 6)

x=−1

Step: Substitute−1forxiny=x:

y=x

y=−1

Answer:

x=−1 and y=−1

Which graph represents a linear function?

irakobra [83]

Answer:

On a coordinate plane, a line has a negative slope

Step-by-step explanation:

A linear function is a function whose graph is a straight line. For example, y = 3x - 2 represents a straight line on a coordinate plane and hence it represents a linear function.

Simplify the expression. (3x/y)^-3

AysviL [449]

Answer:

y^3/(27 x^3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

((3 x)/y)^(-3)

((3 x)/y)^(-3) = (y/(3 x))^3:

(y/(3 x))^3

Multiply each exponent in y/(3 x) by 3:

(y^3)/((3 x)^3)

Multiply each exponent in 3 x by 3:

y^3/(3^3 x^3)

3^3 = 3×3^2:

y^3/(3×3^2 x^3)

3^2 = 9:

y^3/(3×9 x^3)

3×9 = 27:

Answer: y^3/(27 x^3)

A spinner has 6 equally divided sections labeled A, B, C, D, E and F. After spinning the spinner, a number cube is rolled. What

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer: $\dfrac{2}{9}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The spinner has 6 equal sections A, B, C, D, E, and F

The two events occurred one after the other. So, the probability is the product of the probabilities of each event.

There are two consonants in the given 6 letter

The probability of landing over a consonant is

$P_1=\dfrac{2}{6}$

The number greater than 2 in a cube are 3,4,5,6

So, probability corresponding to it

$P_2=\dfrac{4}{6}$

So, the required probability is

$\Rightarrow P=P_1\times P_2\\\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{2}{6}\times \dfrac{4}{6}\\\\\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{8}{36}\\\\\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{2}{9}$
