Answer:

\boxed{ \bold{  \huge{\boxed{ \sf{x = 2}}}}}

Step-by-step explanation:

\sf{5x - 4 =  - 3x + 12}

Move 3x to left hand side and change it's sign

⇒\sf{5x + 3x  - 4 = 12}

Move 4 to right hand side and change it's sign

⇒\sf{5x + 3x = 12 + 4}

Collect like terms

⇒\sf{8x = 12 + 4}

Add the numbers

⇒\sf{8x = 16}

Divide both sides of the equation by 8

⇒\sf{ \frac{8x}{8}  =  \frac{16}{8} }

Calculate

⇒\sf{x = 2}

Hope I helped!

Best regards!!

Answer:

f(-2) = 0

f(1) = 12

f(2) = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

f(-2) will lie in the function f(x) =x^2 - 4

\therefore f( - 2) =  {( - 2)}^{2}  - 4 = 4 - 4 = 0

f(1) will lie in the function f(x) =2x^2 +10

\therefore f(1) = 2 {(1)}^{2}  + 10 = 2 + 10 = 12

f(2) will lie in the function f(x) =5

\therefore f(2) = 5

Answer:

See Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given figure, AP = BP = PC.

And we want to prove that ∠ABC is a right angle.

Since AP = BP and BP = PC, we can create two isosceles triangles: ΔAPB and ΔCPB.

By the definition of isosceles triangles, in ΔAPB, ∠PAB and ∠PBA are equivalent. Let the measure of each of them be <em>x°</em>.

Likewise, in ΔCPB, ∠PCB and ∠PBC are equivalent.

And since AP = BP = PC, each of the angles∠PCB and ∠PBC will also be equivalent to <em>x°.</em>

<em />

And since the sum of the interior angles of a triangle total 180°, we acquire:

\angle PAB+\angle PBA+\angle PCB+\angle PBC=180

Since they are all equivalent:

4x=180

Hence:

x=45^\circ

∠ABC is the sum of ∠PBA and ∠PBC, each of which measures 45°. Hence:

\angle ABC=\angle PBA+\angle PBC=45+45=90^\circ
