-8 and -9 because it is negative
Question 5, x could be either 6 or -1.
Given that f(x) = ax – 5 and f(4) = 15, then the value of a is 5
The given function is:
f(x) = ax - 5
If f(4) = 15, then x = 4
Substitute x = 4 into f(x) = ax - 5
f(4) = a(4) - 5
15 = 4a - 5
Solve for a by adding 5 to both sides
15 + 5 = 4a - 5 + 5
20 = 4a
Divide both sides by 4
4a/4 = 20/4
a = 5
Given that f(x) = ax – 5 and f(4) = 15, then the value of a is 5

Apothem is the height of a triangel formed by two consecutive vertices with the center. the are of this triangle = 1/2 s 8 = 4s
there area 12 such triangles in the regular 12 side polygon
So area = 12 * 4 s = 48 s
Standard form is another way of saying slope-intercept form. The equation you have there is in point-slope form, so we must convert this to slope-intercept form to get our final answer.
In point-slope form (y - k = m(x - h)) k is the y-value, h is the x-value, and m is the slope. All we must do is change your equation's form into standard form, or slope-intercept form which looks like this: (y = mx + b), where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
Convert this equation y + 1 = 2/3(x + 4) into standard/slope-intercept form.
y + 1 = 2/3(x + 4)
y + 1 = 2/3x + 2.666 Here we multiplied 2/3 by x and 4 since x + 4 is in parenthesis next to 2/3.
y + 1 - 1 = 2/3x + 2 2/3 - 1 Now we want to get y by itself so the form will look like y = mx + b, so we subtract the 1 from both sides of the equation. (2 2/3 is a mixed fraction that is equal to 2/3*4.)
y = 2/3x + 1 2/3
This is our final answer since it is in the standard, or slope-intercept form. Hope this made sense! If you have any questions please ask.
