In order to find the value of f(-2), you can plug -2 wherever x is.

f(x) = 6x^2 - 4

f(-2) = 6(-2)^2 - 4

f(-2) = 6(4) - 4

f(-2) = 24 - 4

f(-2) = 20

Thus, the value of f(-2) is 20. Hope this helps! If you have any other questions related to this, let me know.

Dmitri wants to cover the top and sides of this box with glass tiles that are 1 cm square. How many tiles

Scorpion4ik [409]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

968

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the top and sides is given by the formula ...

A = LW +2H(L +W)

A = (20 cm)(18 cm) +2(8 cm)(20 cm +18 cm)

A = (360 +16(38)) cm² = 968 cm²

Since the tiles are 1 cm², 968 tiles are needed.

lyudmila [28]

Answer:

5 months

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we need to create and algebraic equation for when Jill's weight will be equal to Paris's. If we take their current weight and then add the additional weight gain per month times the number of months, we can calculate the amount of time it will take for their weight to be equal by solving for m.

$120+10m=150+4m\\10m-4m=150-120\\6m=30\\m=5$
