Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

What this means is when you start with P(x) you get 10^2 + 10x - 3 on the right

p(-4) has the meaning that when you see an x on the right hand side, you put in -4 for that x. Do this procedure for every x on the right.

p(-4) = 10(-4)^2 + 10(-4) - 3

p(-4) = 10*16 + (-40) - 3

p(-4) = 160 - 40 - 3

p(-4) = 120 - 3

p(-4) = 117

Stolb23 [73]

18 degrees F because
it dropped 12 degrees=10 hours
x degrees=15 hours
x is what you want to find out which is how many degrees it would drop in 15 hours.
12x15 then divided by 10 is 18.

Find the inverse of the function f(x) = (x - 4) 2 - 5 if x ≥ 4.

Serggg [28]

Same here, we do a quick switcharoo on the variables first,

$\bf \stackrel{f(x)}{y}=(x-4)^2-5\qquad inverse\implies \boxed{x}=\left( \boxed{y}-4 \right)^2-5
\\\\\\
x+5=(y-4)^2\implies \pm\sqrt{x+5}=y-4\implies \pm\sqrt{x+5}+4=y$
