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.

How do you find the formula of a half circle?

Alik [6]

Full circle
Circumference = 2*pi * r
Circumference = pi * d

Area = pi r * r = pi * r^2
Area = pi d^2 / 4

Half circle
Circumference = pi * r
Circumference = pi * r / 2

Area = pi r^2 / 2
Area = pi d^2/8

The answer depends on what you are looking for and what you are given. But those are the only common formulas I can think of at the moment.

A rectangular pyramid has a volume of 90 cubic feet. What is the volume of a rectangular prism with the same size base and same

yanalaym [24]

Answer:

30 cubic feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we are given the volume of rectangular pyramid as 90 cubic feet as we are required to find the volume of rectangular prism.

For that we need to use the theorem which says that

the volume prism is always one third of the volume of the pyramid . Whether it is rectangular of triangular base. Hence in this case also the volume of the rectangular prism will be one third of the volume of the rectangular pyramid.

Volume of Rectangular prism = $\frac{1}{3}$ * Volume of rectangular pyramid

= $\frac{1}{3}$ * 90

= 30
