Ok. I’m not the smartest person. But, if I understand the question I have to divide 288 by 2. That would be 144.. but it seems too easy. Correct me if I’m wrong

Given the following function, find f(-2), f(0), and f(4).
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

f(-2) = 0

f(0) = -4

f(4) = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function f(x) = x^2 - 4, we must plug in the values substituting x for each of the answers.

f(-2) = (-2)^2 - 4

-2 times itself is a positive 4, therefore:

f(-2) = 4 - 4

f(-2) = 0

We do the same for each answer.

f(0) = (0)^2 - 4

f(0) = -4

f(4) = (4)^2 - 4

f(4) = 16 - 4

f(4) = 12

Carissa and Louann both have savings accounts. Carissa has $250 in her account and deposits $80 per month. Louann has $1230 in h
zlopas [31]
Carissa value after x months=current+amount deposited
louan value after x months=current-amount taken out

carissa depositied=amount per month times x months=80x
louan take out=amount per month tiems x months=60x

when wil amount be equal
se equal

cariss=lousa
250+80x=1230-60x
add 60x both sides
250+140x=1230
minus 250 both sides
140x=980
divide both sides by 140
x=7

find how much that is
250+80(7)=250+560=810

The ratio of the side lengths of a quadrilateral is 3:3:5:8, and the perimeter is 380cm. What is the measure of the longest side
MariettaO [177]

Answer: The second option (160 cm)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You can obtain the perimeter of a quadrilateral by adding the lenghts of the sides.

2. You know that the ratio of the side lengths is 3:3:5:8 and the perimeter is 380 centimeters.

3. Therefore, you can write the following expression, where x is an integer:

3x+3x+5x+8x=380

4. Solve for x:

3x+3x+5x+8x=380\\19x=380\\x=\frac{380}{19}\\x=20

5. Therefore, the longest side is:

8x=8*20=160 (160 cm)
