Answer:

f(-3) = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x² - 5

f(x) is a function with input x, meaning it is an expression which has terms involving x;

x is a variable and can be considered a space holder;

f(-3) is the function with input -3, this simply means replacing the space holder, i.e. x, with -3;

f(-3) = (-3)² - 5

f(-3) = 9 - 5

f(-3) = 4

Answer:

f(-3)=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute x=-3 into the function

f(-3)=(-3)^2-5

f(-3)=9-5

f(-3)=4

Answer:

f^-1 = 4(x-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

If f(x) = 1/4(x) + 3 we ned to find f^-1.

To find the inverse function, we need to solve the equation for "x", as follows:

f(x) = 1/4(x) + 3

y = 1/4(x) + 3

y-3 = 1/4(x)

4(y-3) = x

Now, change the "x" for an "y". And change the "y" for an "x":

4(x-3) = y

The solution is the last one.

Write a solution in Interval Notation - (you don't have to help me on all, 1 or 2 is fine c: )

Gemiola [76]

QUESTION 1

The given inequality is

$|m|-2>0$

We group like terms to get,

$|m|>2$

This implies that,

$-m>2$ or $m>2$ .

We simplify the inequality to get,

$m$ or $m>2$ .

We can write this interval notation to get,

$(-\infty,-2)\cup (2,+\infty)$ .

QUESTION 2

$|x-4|-3\:>\:5$ .

We group like terms to get,

$|x-4|\:>\:5+3$ .

$|x-4|\:>\:8$

We split the absolute value sign to get,

$-(x-4)\:>\:8$ or $x-4\:>\:8$

This implies that,

$x-4\:$ or $x-4\:>\:8$

$x\:$ or $x\:>\:8+4$

$x\:$ or $x\:>\:12$

We can write this interval notation to get,

$(-\infty,-4)\cup (12,+\infty)$ .

QUESTION 3

The given inequality is

$|6+9x|\leq 24$

We split the absolute value sign to obtain,

$-(6+9x)\leq 24$ or $(6+9x)\leq 24$

This simplifies to

$6+9x\ge -24$ and $6+9x\leq 24$

$9x\ge -24-6$ and $9x\leq 24-6$

$9x\ge -30$ and $9x\leq 18$

$x\ge -\frac{10}{3}$ and $x\leq 2$

$-\frac{10}{3}\leq x\leq2$

We write this in interval form to get,

$[-\frac{10}{3},2]$

QUESTION 4

The given inequality is

$|1-5a|>29$

We split the absolute value sign to get,

$-(1-5a)>29$ or $1-5a>29$

This simplifies to,

$1-5a\:$ or $1-5a\:>\:29$

This implies that,

$-5a\:$ or $-5a\:>\:29-1$

$-5a\:$ or $-5a\:>\:28$

$a\:>\:6$ or $a\:$

We write this in interval notation to get,

$(-\infty,-\frac{28}{5})\cup (6,+\infty)$

When will the sum of two numbers be zero

mash [69]

The sum of two numbers will be zero when you have the same number and one is positive and one is negative. For example 1 + -1= 0
