Which statement best describes how to determine whether f(x) = x2 – x + 8 is an even function?
determine whether –x2 – (–x) + 8 is equivalent to x2 – x + 8.
determine whether (–x)2 – (–x) + 8 is equivalent to x2 – x + 8.
determine whether –x2 – (–x) + 8 is equivalent to –(x2 – x + 8).
determine whether (–x)2 – (–x) + 8 is equivalent to –(x2 – x +

B, Determine whether (–x)² – (–x) + 8 is equivalent to x² – x + 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

to know if a function is even, it has to be symmetric with respect to the y-axis. this means we need to plug in -x wherever we see x, and if we get the same answer, then it is an even function

for f(x) = x² - x + 8, we need to solve when f(x) = f(-x)

f(-x) = (-x)² - (-x) + 8

f(-x) = x² + x + 8

f(x) = x² - x + 8 is not an even function, as its not equal to f(-x).

the statement that best matches what we did here is B

b

step-by-step explanation:

the total is 23.97. 0.25% is off so you have to subtracting 25% from 100% and you will get 75% if you convert it to decimal you will get 0.75. you have to find the original because the formula is % times original = total.so you have the total and the % so you just have to plug it in.

x = 17

step-by-step explanation:

in the given figure, two triangles are inscribed in a circle where ∠bae ≅ ∠dae which makes the side be and de equal so we can write it as:

3x - 24 = x + 10

solving this equation for x to get:

3x - x = 10 + 24

2x = 34

x = 34/2

x = 17

therefore, the value of x = 17.
