3-5 are all correct.
1. Yes, the sentence "If anyone doesn't find me, I will die" is grammatically correct. It uses the conditional structure "If... then" to express a hypothetical situation and the consequence that follows.
2. No, the sentence "If no one finds me, I will die" is not grammatically incorrect, but it sounds less natural compared to the first sentence. Using "no one" instead of "anyone" gives it a slightly different meaning and may be less commonly used.
3. The sentence "You have to practice playing the piano" is correct. It expresses the necessity or requirement of practicing the act of playing the piano.
