Answer:
The simplified value of
is
.
Step-by-step explanation:
As the given expression is

Lets simplify this expression step by step
As
![-25^{-\frac{1}{2}}....[A]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=-25%5E%7B-%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%7D....%5BA%5D)


So, lets plug
in equation [A] i.e. ![-25^{-\frac{1}{2}}....[A]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=-25%5E%7B-%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%7D....%5BA%5D)
![-25^{-\frac{1}{2}}....[A]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=-25%5E%7B-%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%7D....%5BA%5D)
∵ 
∵ 
Therefore, the simplified value of
is

notice that for the perimeter we didn't include the segment BC, because the perimeter of a figure is simply the outer borders.
Number of cards of John: J
Number of cards of Alan: A
<span>John and Alan have a collection of x baseball cards:
J+A=x (1)
</span>John has x/4 cards:
J=x/4
<span>What fraction of the cards does Alan have?
</span>
Replacing J by x/4 in the equation (1)
(1) J+A=x
x/4+A=x
Solving for A:
x/4+A-x/4=x-x/4
A=4x/4-x/4
A=(4x-x)/4
A=3x/4
Answer: Alan has 3/4 of the cards
Answer: {-1, 1}
Explanation: If you plug in either 1 or -1 into the equation, it will satisfy the equation f(x) = 8.
