Question

Functions s(10)=??
need help

Answer 1

We're required to find s(10).

therefore , the polynomial applicable will be

`s(x) = - 5{x}^(2) + x - 8 \: \\ \: ( \: since \: x > - 1)`

`\therefore \: s(10) = - 5( {10}^(2)) + 10 - 8 \\ \dashrightarrow \: s(10) = - 5(100) + 2 \\ \dashrightarrow \: s(10) = - 500 + 2 \\ \dashrightarrow \: \boxed{ \: s(10) = - 498}`

hope helpful! :)
