Answer:

f(-1) =0

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=3x^5-2x^3+1

Let x = -1

f(-1) = 3(-1)^5 -2(-1)^3 +1

= 3(-1) -2(-1)+1

=-3 +2+1

Answer:

f(-1)=0

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=3x^5-2x^3+1

well, all you have to do is to replace x with -1.

f(-1)=3·(-1)^5-2·(-1)^3+1

f(-1)=3·(-1)-2·(-1)+1

f(-1)=-3+2+1

f(-1)=-3+3=0

A landscaper needs 348 pounds of plant food. He has 114 pounds in his truck, and another 46 pound at his shop.

Answer:

$\frac{19}{12}\ pounds$

$1\frac{7}{12}\ pounds$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The correct question is </em></u>

A landscaper needs 3 4/8 pounds of plant food. He has 1 1/4 pounds in his truck, and another 4/6 pound at his shop. How many more pounds of plant food does the landscaper need?

Let

x ----> the additional pounds of plant food needed for the landscaper

we know that

The additional pounds of plant food needed for the landscaper plus the pounds in his truck plus the pounds in his shop must be equal to the total pounds of plant food needed

The linear equation that represent this problem is

$x+1\frac{1}{4}+\frac{4}{6}=3\frac{4}{8}$

Convert mixed number to an improper fractions

$1\frac{1}{4}=1+\frac{1}{4}=\frac{4*1+1}{4}=\frac{5}{4}$

$3\frac{4}{8}=3+\frac{4}{8}=\frac{3*8+4}{8}=\frac{28}{8}=\frac{14}{4}$

Substitute in the expression above

$x+\frac{5}{4}+\frac{4}{6}=\frac{14}{4}$

solve for x

Multiply by (4*6) both sides to remove the fractions

$24x+30+16=84$

Combine like terms left side

$24x+46=84$

subtract 46 both sides

$24x=84-46$

$24x=38$

Divide by 24 both sides

$x=\frac{38}{24}\ pounds$

simplify

$x=\frac{19}{12}\ pounds$

Convert to mixed number

$\frac{19}{12}\ pounds=\frac{12}{12}+\frac{7}{12}=1\frac{7}{12}\ pounds$

How are rate of change and slope related for a linear relationship?

ale4655 [162]

Hello! In slope-intercept form, y=mx+b. M is the slope and b is the y-intercept. The rate of change and slope are interchangeable, therefore, they both create a line through the slope-intercept form. Feel free to rate my answer Brainliest if I helped you!
