Answer:

b = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Since both angles are diagonal each other, they are equal to each other.

5b = b + 56

-b -b (subtract b from both sides)

4 4 (divide both sides by 4 to solve for b)

b = 14

Evaluate f(x) = 2x4 - 4x3-11x2+3x-6 for x=-2 f (-2) =?

ollegr [7]

Answer:

f(- 2) = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Evaluating for x = - 2

f(- 2) = 2 $(-2)^{4}$ - 4(- 2)³ - 11(- 2)² + 3(- 2) - 6

= (2 × 16) + (- 4 × - 8) + (- 11 × 4) - 6 - 6

= 32 + 32 - 44 - 6 - 6 = 8
