Answer:
f(-2) = 21
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Define
f(x) = 3x² - 4x + 1
f(-2) is x = -2
Step 2: Substitute and Evaluate
f(-2) = 3(-2)² - 4(-2) + 1
f(-2) = 3(4) + 8 + 1
f(-2) = 12 + 9
f(-2) = 21
Graphs like these (lines) come in the form y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept. Y intercept is where the graph intersects the y axis so the value would be 5
X = pens and y = pencils
4x + 7y = 13.25
y = 0.75
4x + 7(0.75) = 13.25
4x + 5.25 = 13.25
4x = 13.25 - 5.25
4x = 8
x = 8/4
x = 2 <===so each pen cost 2 bucks
