31. It gives you the equation f(x) = -2x + 4 and asks you to solve for f(12). To solve this you must replace x in the equation -2x + 4 with 12 like so:
-2(12) + 4
Remember that when solving this use your rules of PEMDAS. In this case you will first multiply -2 and 12 then add the product with 4
-24 + 4
f(12) = -20
33. Replace x in the equation x³ - x with 5 like so...
5³ - 5
Again, remember to use the rules of PEMDAS to solve this. First take the cube of 5 then subtract 5 from the answer
125 - 5
g(5) = 120
Hope this helped!

Answer: Keisha can run faster than Stephan.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's figure out how long it takes for them to run a mile.

It would take Stephan 5.25 minutes to run a mile

It would take Keisha 4.52 minutes to run a mile
Since Keisha takes less time to run a mile she is faster.
Answer:
25 pages
Step-by-step explanation:
Create a proportion:
=
= 
Cross multiply and solve for x, the number of pages in 75 minutes:
60x = 1500
x = 25
So, he can read 25 pages in 75 minutes at the same rate
Answer: The equation is 5x = 12.50 and you will have the canoe for 2 and half hours or 2 hours 30 minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
You rent the canoe for 5 dollars per hour and that can be represented by the expression 5x. After sometime you paid $12.50 meaning that to find the number of hours that you need the canoe, we need to set 5x to equal 12.50.
5x = 12.50 Solve for x by divide both sides by 5.
x = 2.5
This means you will need the canoe for 2 and half hours.
