ANSWER
1. k=13
2. x=-10
EXPLANATION
The given function is

To find f(x+5), plug in (x+5) wherever you see x.
This implies that:

Expand:

Simplify to obtain

We now compare with,

This implies that:

To find the smallest zero of f(x+5), we equate the function to zero and solve for x.





The smallest zero is -10.
Answer: x=-17
Step-by-step explanation:
We first distribute the -12 across to the (x+5)
144=-12(x+5)
144=-12x-60
Then, we add 60 to both sides.
204 = -12x
Lastly, we divide the equation by -12.
204/-12 = -12x/-12
-17 = x
Volume = Length x Width x Height
Volume = 12 x 12 x 6 = 864 m³
Answer: 864 m³
Answer:
. The dependent variable is the variable that changes in response to the independent variable. The two variables may be related by cause and effect
