Evaluate the function f(x)=x^2+6x+2 at the given values of the independent variable and simplify.

Mathematics
1 answer:
____ [38]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

a) 18

b)x^2+10x+18

c)x^2 -6x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a case of plugging in the value into f(x).

a) f(-8)= -8^2 + 6(-8) +2

f(-8)= 64 + (-48) +2

f(-8)=64 + (-46)

f(-8)=18

b)  f(x+2)= (x+2)^2+6(x+2)+2

So here I'll take a break to explain what's going on, because x+2 is a binomial meaning two terms and it is being squared I have to multiply the whole thing by itself. Meaning: (x+2) x (x+2), this is also known as foiling!! and for the next part its distributing 6 into x and 2.

    f(x+2)= x^2+4x+4+6x+12+2

I'll reorder it

 f(x+2)= x^2+4x+6x+12+2+4

    f(x+2)= x^2+10x+18

c) f(-x)= -x^2+6(-x) +2

f(-x)= x^2 -6x+2

Evaluate v+t when t=4x-1 and v=2x+1
Rainbow [258]

You would simply add the last two equations together. If v=2x+1 and t=4x-1, you can add them up. This would make 2x+1+4x-1. If you combine like terms, 1 and -1 cancel out and you are left with 6x. This means x can be anything.

kondaur [170]

Answer:

C, 12

Step-by-step explanation:

least common multiple of 4 and 6 is:

prime factorization of 4: 2*2

prime factorization of 6: 3*2

common factors: 2, so you should only multiply one of the common 2s when multiplying the factors to get the least common multiple

2*2*3=12

12 is a common denominator of 1/4 and 5/6
