Question 139064
1. Convert to scientific notation (here you may use x as multiplication):
0.00083
Move the decimal 4 places to the right, and you have 8.3(10^-4)
:
2. For f(x) = 6x – 7, find f(2)
f(2) just means substitute 2 for x.
f(2) = 6(2) - 7
f(2) = 12 - 7
f(2) = 5
:
3. Perform the indicated operations:
(-x2 – 6x + 3) – (-9x2 + x – 1) – (x2 + 5x – 2)
:
Remove the brackets, remember a neg outside the brackets, change the signs:
-x^2 - 6x + 3 + 9x^2 - x + 1 - x^2 - 5x + 2
;
Group like terms
-x^2 + 9x^2 - x^2 - 6x - x - 5x + 3 + 1 + 2
:
7x^2 - 12x + 5
