Answer:

(- 2, 5 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

3x + 4y = 14 → (1)

x = 2y - 12 → (2)

Substitute x = 2y - 12 into (1)

3(2y - 12) + 4y = 14 ← distribute and simplify left side

6y - 36 + 4y = 14

10y - 36 = 14 ( add 36 to both sides )

10y = 50 ( divide both sides by 10 )

y = 5

Substitute y = 5 into (2) for corresponding value of x

x = 2(5) - 12 = 10 - 12 = - 2

Solution is (- 2, 5 )

Find f(-2) for the function f(x)= 3x2-2x+7

4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

f( - 2) = 23

Step-by-step explanation:

$f(x) = 3 {x}^{2} - 2x + 7 \\ plug \: x = - 2 \\ f( - 2) = 3 {( - 2)}^{2} - 2( - 2)+ 7 \\ = 3 \times 4 + 4 + 7 \\ = 12 + 11 \\ \huge \red{ \boxed{ f( - 2) = 23}}$

The table shows the battery lives in hours of ten Brand A batteries and ten Brand B batteries.

defon

Plotting the data (attached photo) roughly shows that the data is skewed to the left. In other words, data is skewed negatively and that the long tail will be on the negative side of the peak.

In such a scenario, interquartile range is normally the best measure to compare variations of data.

Therefore, the last option is the best for the data provided.
