Simple as subbin' in -5 for x.
f(-5) = -(-5)² - 2(-5) + 1
= -25 + 10 + 1

F(x) = -x² - 2x + 1

f(-5) = -(-5)² - 2(-5) + 1

f(-5) = -25 + 10 + 1

f(-5) = -15 + 1

f(-5) = -14

-14 <----- answer

Answer:

$x=\dfrac{y}{0.62}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$5\ \text{km}=3.1\ \text{miles}\\\Rightarrow 1\ \text{km}=\dfrac{3.1}{5}=0.62\ \text{miles}$

$10\ \text{km}=6.2\ \text{miles}\\\Rightarrow 1\ \text{km}=\dfrac{6.2}{10}=0.62\ \text{miles}$

Let $y$ be the distance in miles. So distance in km is given by

$x=\dfrac{y}{0.62}$ .

The equation that shows the approximate distance in kilometers as a function if the distance in miles is $x=\dfrac{y}{0.62}$ .
