Hello!

To find the value of f(-1), you need to substitute -1 into each x variable and solve. Remember to use PEMDAS when simplifying.

f(x) = x² - 8x + 5 (substitute -1 for x)

f(-1) = (-1)² - 8(-1) + 5 (simplify the exponent)

f(-1) = 1 - 8(-1) + 5 (multiply)

f(-1) = 1 + 8 + 5 (add alike terms)

f(-1) = 14

Therefore, the value of f(-1) is 14.

Find the area and perimeter.
DanielleElmas [232]

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 12 + x + 6 + 2x + 5

Perimeter = 3x + 23.

Area = ½ × b × h

Area = ½ × 12 × (x + 6)

Area = 6(x + 6)

Area = 6x + 36

Which techniques can be used to evaluate the expression 12.75/<br><br> 1.5
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

8.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression 12.75/1.5. The technique in solving the division expression is as shown

First we can write the decimals as fraction as shown;

12.75 = 1275/100

1.5 = 15/10

12.75/1.5 = (1275/100)÷(15/10)

12.75/1.5 = 1275/100×10/15

12.75/1.5 = 1275/10 × 1/15

12.75/1.5 = 1275/150

12.75/1.5 = 8.5

Hence the result of the division is 8.5
