Answer:
46 and 277
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
f(x) =
- 8x - 11 ← substitute x = 3, x = - 4 into f(x)
f(3) =
- 8(3) - 11 = 81 - 24 - 11 = 81 - 35 = 46
f(- 4) =
- 8(- 4) - 11 = 256 + 32 - 11 = 288 - 11 = 277
Answer:
dont take my word for it but
Step-by-step explanation:
x<-7
Subtract 32 to both sides to the equation becomes -5x^2 + 7x + 9 = 0.
To solve this equation, we can use the quadratic formula. The quadratic formula solves equations of the form ax^2 + bx + c = 0
x = [ -b ± √(b^2 - 4ac) ] / (2a)
x = [ -7 ± √(7^2 - 4(-5)(9)) ] / ( 2(-5) )
x = [ -7 ± √(49 - (-180) ) ] / ( -10 )
x = [ -7 ± √(229) ] / ( -10)
x = [ -7 ± sqrt(229) ] / ( -10 )
x = 7/10 ± -sqrt(229)/10
The answers are 7/10 + sqrt(229)/10 and 7/10 - sqrt(229)/10.
Think of two ropes next to each other. Draw a picture if it helps. To find how much longer, start with the longer one and subtract the shorter length to get the difference, or “how much longer.”
To subtract fractions they have to be changed to the same denominator. First change 3 2/3 to a complex fraction; multiply the coefficient 3 times the denominator 3, then add the numerator. 3X3=9. 9+2=11 . 11 is now numerator, use same denominator. So you get 11/3. Then change denominator to 9. To do this you have to multiply by what? You would multiply by 3. Do the same to the numerator: 11 X 3=33. The fraction becomes 33/9. Now you can subtract. Now that both have the same denominator, you just subtract the numerators. 33-8=25. So, 33/9-8/9= 25/9
