1) the longest side is 5cm and the perimeter is 12cm
2) longest side is 12.04 or just 12
3) 241 miles apart
4) Yes it is
The answer is 7
f(x) = -4x - 1
f(-2) = ?
Since f(x) = f(-2), then x = -2. Now just substitute x in the function:
f(-2) = (-4) * (-2) - 1
f(-2) = 8 - 1
f(-2) = 7
Answer:
A.
x + 2 + 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Thomas (t) = Andrew (x) * 2 + 12
Let's make things easier by simplifying things.
y = 8 and x = 3 is more likely to be understood as a ratio. So for the rest of the answer, their relationship would be represented as y:x
Thus: y:x = 8:3
The problem would be finding y when x = 45
Let us proceed on using the previous equation and substitute x with 45 which would look like this:
y:45 = 8:3
Ratios can also be expressed as fractions which would make things more understandable and easy to solve. So the new form of our equation would be like this:
y/45 = 8/3
Then we proceed with a cross multiplication where the equation becomes like as what is shown below:
3y = 45 * 8
From there, you can solve it by multiplying 45 and 8 then dividing the product with 3 to get y
3y = 360
y = 120
Another way of looking at the problem, especially problems like these, is to take the whole question or statement as an equation. it would probably look like this:
y = 8 when x = 3 : y = ? when x = 45
This would make you understand what approach you can use to solve the given problem.
