a) find f(2)
b)find f^-1(x)
c)f^-1(7)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) [tex]f(2) = 5[/tex], b) [tex]f^{-1} (x) = \frac{x-1}{2}[/tex], c) [tex]f^{-1} (7) = 3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

a) We evaluate the function at [tex]x = 2[/tex]:

[tex]f(2) = 2\cdot (2) + 1[/tex]

[tex]f(2) = 4+1[/tex]

[tex]f(2) = 5[/tex]

b) First, we determine the inverse of the function by algebraic means:

1) [tex]y = 2\cdot x + 1[/tex] Given

2) [tex]y +(-1) = 2\cdot x + [1+(-1)][/tex] Compatibility with addition/Associative property

3) [tex]y + (-1) =2\cdot x[/tex] Existence of additive inverse/Modulative property

4) [tex]2^{-1}\cdot [y+(-1)] = (2\cdot 2^{-1})\cdot x[/tex] Compatibility with multiplication/Commutative and associative properties

5) [tex][y+(-1)]\cdot 2^{-1} = x[/tex] Existence of multiplicative inverse/Modulative and commutative properties

6) [tex]x = [y+(-1)]\cdot 2^{-1}[/tex] Symmetry property of equality

7) [tex]x = \frac{y-1}{2}[/tex] Definitions of subtraction and division

8) [tex]f^{-1} (x) = \frac{x-1}{2}[/tex] [tex]x = f_{-1} (x)[/tex]/[tex]y = x[/tex]/Result

c)  Now we evaluate the expression obtained on b) at the given number:

[tex]f^{-1} (7) = \frac{7-1}{2}[/tex]

[tex]f^{-1} (7) = 3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

This is easy...

38 + 56 = x

94

180 - 94 = 86

86 + 38 + 56 = 180

so x = 86 degrees

___________________

180 - 86 = 94

z = 94

so y = 67 degrees

Sonya had 20 dollars to spend on 3 gifts. She spent 8 1 4 dollars on gift A and 4 4 5 dollars on gift B. How much money did she have left for gift C?

Answers

Answer:

6 19/20 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Sonya had 20 dollars to spend on 3 gifts.

She spent 8 1 4 dollars on gift A and 4 4 5 dollars on gift B.

Gift A + Gift B + Gift C = $20

Gift C = $20 - (Gift A + Gift B)

Gift A = $8 1/4

Gift B = $4 4/5

Hence:

The amount she had left for gift C is :

Gift C = $20 - ($8 1/4 + $ 4 4/5)

Gift C = $20 - $13 1/20

Gift C = $ 6 19/20

Answers

C. 0.0335 mm to 0.0345 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

The least significant digit of Craig's measurement is in the 0.001 mm place. The error in the measurement is presumed to fall within half that value either side of Craig's measurement. So, the actual value is expected to be in the range ...

0.034 - 0.0005 = 0.0335

to

0.034 + 0.0005 = 0.0345

The measurement is presumed to be in the range 0.0335 mm to 0.0345 mm.

Find the value of x and y with the steps PLEASE.

Answers

Answer:

x=70

y= 40

Step-by-step explanation:

the triangle containing x is an isosceles triangle so two of the sides are 55.

55+55+x=180.

110+x=180

110-110+x=180-110

x=70

Triangle BAC is equilateral so 180/3=60. Now

x+60+c=180

70+60+c=180

130+c=180

130-130+c=180-130

c=50

That gives us one corner of triangle CBD. We know a second angle is 90 so

50+90+y=180

140+y=180

140-140+y=180-140

y=40

mean- 66

median- 7

mode- 8

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the mode you line up all the numbers, add them all together and then divide that number by 2.

to find the median you line up all the numbers then one by one taking turns from left to right you cross of the numbers to find the number in the middle. (think of median as middle)

to find mode you just find the number that is used the most. (mode=most)

to find the range you find the highest number and the lowest number. and subtract the lowest from the highest to find the difference between the 2. in this case its 9-3 so the difference is 6.

Answers

Answer:

x=60

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of interior angles of a regular Pentagon is 540°

x+2x+2.5x+x+10+2x+20=540

8.5x=540-30

8.5x=510

x=510/8.5=60

Answer:

x = 60°

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of interior angles of a regular polygon is:

180°(n-2)

Pentagon has 5 sides, so sum of angles is:

180°(5-2) = 180°*3 = 540°

For the given pentagon we have sum of angle measures as below, and solving for x:

x + 2x + 2.5x + (x +10) + (2x + 20) = 540°8.5x + 30° = 540°8.5x = 510°x = 510°/8.5x = 60°

What the answer

Answers

Answer:

x = 4.5 AND x = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

for the first answer

add 9 to 0 and divide by 2

for the second answer

subtract 4

Answer:

x = 9/2 and x = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

you can set each expression in the parenthesis' equal to zero. this is due to it being multiplication so if one parenthesis equals 0, the answer will be 0

2x - 9 = 0 and x + 4 = 0

starting with 2x-9=0

add 9 to both sides

2x = 9

divide by 2

x = 9/2

then do x + 4 = 0

subtract 4

x = -4

so your two answers are

x = 9/2 and x = -4

About Algebra

All of Algebra is based on a few simple rules:

adding 0 doesn't change anythingmultiplying by 1 doesn't change anythingdoing the same thing to both sides of an equation doesn't change the values of the variablesanything can be substituted for its equal

When we solve equations by substitution, we make use of these facts.

About Substitution

Generally, substitution in equation solving is done for the purpose of eliminating a variable from the equation. That usually means you want to write an expression for one variable in terms of other variables.

Finding the Expression to Substitute

In this set of equations, the variables are x and y. We can substitute for y an expression involving x, or we can substitute for x an expression involving y. These equations are written in such a way that either method works as well as the other.

Let's choose to substitute for y. This means we need an equation of the form ...

  y = <some expression involving x>

The first equation makes it easy to get that. If we add y (to both sides, see rule 3 above), we get ...

  5x -y +y = 4 +y

  5x = 4 + y . . . . . . . . . simplified

Subtracting 4 (from both sides) gets us the form we want.

  5x -4 = 4 -4 + y

  5x -4 = y . . . . . . by rule 4 above, we can use (5x-4) anyplace you see y

Using the Expression to Substitute

Now, we have an expression for y that we can use in the second equation. There, y is multiplied by 4, so we need to be sure to multiply the whole expression by 4:

  -x + 4(5x -4) = 3 . . . . . . substituted for y in the second equation

  -x +20x -16 = 3 . . . . . use the distributive property to eliminate parentheses

  19x -16 = 3 . . . .  . . collect terms

This has a constant (-16) where we don't want it, so we can add 16 (to both sides) to get rid of it.

  19x -16 +16 = 3 +16

  19x = 19 . . . . simplify

Now, we can divide by 19 (to both sides) to get x by itself.

  (19x)/19 = 19/19

  x = 1 . . . . almost done; we still need to find y

Finishing Up

Using the equation for y that we used for substitution, we can find y from our value of x.

  y = 5x -4 = 5×1 -4 = 5-4

  y = 1

So, the solution is x = 1, y = 1, or (x, y) = (1, 1).

_____

Additional comment

In this set of equations, both variables (x and y) appear with coefficients of 1 (actually, -1). This makes it easy to solve for an expression that can be substituted for the variable. In systems of equations that you want to solve by substitution, it usually works well to start by looking for a variable with a coefficient of 1 (or -1). Use that to write the substitution expression as we did here.

__

Alternate Solution

If you use a variable with a coefficient other than 1 to write the substitution expression, you end up with fractions. That's OK if you're comfortable with arithmetic using fractions. It generally requires more care.

For example, we could solve the first equation for x:

  x = (4 +y)/5

Substituting that into the second equation gives ...

  -(4 +y)/5 +4y = 3

  -4/5 -y/5 +4y = 3

  (3 4/5)y = 3 4/5 . . . . . add 4/5 (to both sides), collect terms

Now, you get to divide by 3 4/5 to get ...

  y = (3 4/5)/(3 4/5) = 1

Fortunately, in this case, we can see the numerator and denominator are identical, so the division result is 1. If it weren't you'd be faced with dividing mixed numbers--not always a student's first choice of fun math operations.

  x = (4 +1)/5 = 1 . . . . finishing up

Please help ASAP help please
