Answer:
(x) = √ x + 4
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1) replace f(x) with y
y = x² - 4
step 2) switch the x and y (because every (x, y) has a (y, x))
x = y² - 4
step 3) add 4 to both sides of the equal sign
x + 4 = y²
step 4) take the square root of both sides of the equal sign (the square root symbol cancels out the ²)
√ x + 4 = y
step 5) you know have the inverse of f(x) = x² - 4
(x) = √ x + 4
Answer:
The price for 3.75 pounds of cherries is $17.775.
Step-by-step explanation:
The price las week was $ 4.99 and it got a discount of 15% for this week, this means that the price for this week is 100% of the one prior minus 15%, therefore it is 85% of the last price. We need to calculate the price per pound with this discount as shown below:
Since the price is $4.74 per pound and we want to buy 3.75 pounds, then the total amount we need to pay is:
The price for 3.75 pounds of cherries is $17.775.
