Answer:
x = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
First things first, simplify;
x+5 - 2(2)
x+5 - 4
x+1
Now we have;
f(x) = x+1
subtract 1
x = -1
Answer:
Martina is 53 inches tall.
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to write an expression that relates the siblings heights we need to attribute variables to each brother. First we will call Martina's height as "m", then we can call her little brother's height as "b". The problem states that Martina's height is 3 inches less than twice the height of her brother so we have:
m = 2*b - 3
Then the problem gives us the height of her brother that is 28 inches tall, so b = 28. We can now compute Martina's height:
m = 2*28 - 3 = 56 - 3 = 53 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:
1/5 for one drawing
1/5 chance to win once, if there is only one game.
Then multiply them together to get 1/25.
If you need in decimal form 1/25 = 0.04 (unusual)
Let P(x,y) be a point on the parabola. The definition of a parabola is the squared distance from P to focus F(2,2) equals the squared distance to the directrix x=8.
squared distance from P(x,y) to focus F(2,2)
(x - 2)² + (y - 2)²
squared distance from P(x,y) to the directrix x=8.
(x-8)²
Those are equal in a parabola,
(x - 2)² + (y - 2)² = (x-8)²
x² - 4x + 4 + y² - 4y + 4 = x² - 16x + 64
y² - 4y - 46 = -12x
That's a sideways parabola,
x = -(y² - 4y - 46)/12
