Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = -3x + 5.

f(x) =-1

-1 = -3x+5

Subtract 5 from each side

-1 -5 = -3x+5-5

-6 = -3x

Divide each side by -3

-6/-3 = -3x/-3

2 =x

$LA=PH$

where

P is the perimeter of the base of the prism

H is the height of the prism

in this problem we have

$P=25\ in$

$H=5\ in$

substitute

$LA=(25)(5)=125\ in^{2}$

Find the distance between the points<br><br> (1,8) and (-3,8)

Vilka [71]

Answer:

<h2>4 units</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between two points can be found by using the formula

$d = \sqrt{ ({x1 - x2})^{2} + ({y1 - y2})^{2} } \\$

From the question we have

$d = \sqrt{ {(1 - - 3)}^{2} + ({8 - 8})^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{ ({1 + 3})^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{ {4}^{2} } \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \\ = \sqrt{16} \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \:$

We have the final answer as

<h3>4 units</h3>
