F(x) = x² - 8x + 5
f(-1) = (-1)² - 8*(-1) + 5
= 1 + 8 + 5 = 14
f(-1) = 14.
A sample of n=8 scores has a mean of m=12. What is the value of ∑x for this sample
Answer: We are given the mean of 8 scores is 12.
We are required to find the sum of these 8 observation's, 
We know that:

We are given:




Hence, sum of 8 observation's, 
A. correct as it is
B. 5, 4, 3, 0
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Given
m cups of water = p cups of rice
Required
Cups of water required for p + 2 cups of rice
<em>The question shows a direct proportion between cups of rice and cups of water.</em>
<em>So, the first step is to get the proportionality constant (k)</em>
<em />
This is calculated using the following expression;

Where k represents cups of water and p represents cups of rice
Make k the subject of formula

Let x represents cups of water when cups of rice becomes p + 2;
k becomes:

Equate both expressions of k; to give

Multiply both sides by p + 2




<em>Hence, the expression that represents the cups of water needed is </em>
<em></em>
