The number of numbers which are a units away from 0 if a>0 is; 2 numbers.

<h3>Distance between numbers on the number line</h3>

by convention, the distance between two numbers on the number line is usually a positive number.

On this note, since the required numbers are a units away from zero, it follows that;

|a - 0| = a units

|0 - a| = a units.

On this note, only 2 numbers are a units away from zero according to the given condition.

$f(x) = 5x + 1\\\\subtitute\ x = 1\ to\ the\ equation\\\\f(1) = 5\cdot1 + 1 = 5 + 1 = 6\\----------------------\\f(x)=\dfrac{2x+3}{5}\to y=\dfrac{2x+3}{5}\ \ \ \ |multiply\ both\ sides\ by\ 5\\\\5y=2x+3\ \ \ \ |subtract\ 3\ from\ both\ sides\\\\2x=5y-3\ \ \ \ \ |divide\ both\ sides\ by\ 2\\\\x=\dfrac{5y-3}{2}\\\\f^{-1}(x)=\dfrac{5\cdot(-1)-3}{2}=\dfrac{-5-3}{2}=\dfrac{-8}{2}=-4\\---------------------\\3y-7=y+5\ \ \ |add\ 7\ to\ both\ sides\\3y=y+12\ \ \ \ |subtract\ y\ from\ both\ sides\\2y=12\ \ \ \ |divide\ both\ sides\ by\ 2\\y=6$

Answer: f(1) when f(x) = 5x + 1 and 3y - 7 = y + 5

Part A : formula for circumference = pi*D or 2piR
for circle A.... 8*pi=25.12
therefore pi=3.14
for circle B.... 3*pi=9.42
therefore pi=9.42/3
pi=3.14

part B : formula for Area =
$pi \times {r}^{2}$
for circle A.... 50.24=pi*(8/2)sqr...(because diameter/2= radius)
pi=50.24/16
pi=3.14

for circle B... 7.065=pi*(3/2)sqr...
pi=7.065/2.25
pi=3.14

what do you observe?
the values for pi are all equal... therefore pi is constant.
