Answer:

  (a)  h(x) = 1/2x -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The inverse of the function y = f(x) is found by solving x = f(y).

__

<h3>setup</h3>

  x = f(y)

  x = 2y +1 . . . . . . use the definition of f(x)

<h3>solution</h3>

  x -1 = 2y . . . . . subtract 1

  (x -1)/2 = y . . . . divide by 2

  y = 1/2x -1/2 . . . . eliminate parentheses

  h(x) = 1/2x -1/2 . . . write in functional form

The inverse of f(x) = 2x+1 is ...

  h(x) = 1/2x -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

for the inverse function we simply try to turn y and x around, and find the equation that calculates x out of y instead of y out of x.

remember,

f(x) = y

so, we have

y = 2x + 1

y - 1 = 2x

x = y/2 - 1/2

now we just rename x to y and y to x to make this a "normal" function :

y = h(x) = x/2 - 1/2

so, the first answer option is correct.

Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

5x-3+ x+9 + 90= 180

6x+ 96=180

6x=180-96

6x=84

x=84/6

x=14

A ball rolls down an inclined plane such that the distance (in centimeters) that it rolls in t seconds is given by s(t) = 2t^3 +
IRISSAK [1]
The ball's velocity will be represented by the derivative of its distance function:

s'(t)=6t^2+6t

Now find the times t for which this is equal to 30, i.e. solve

6t^2+6t=30\implies t^2+t-5=0

This has two solutions, t=-\dfrac{1\pm\sqrt{21}}2, but only one is positive and falls in the interval [0,3]. So the velocity reaches 30 cm/s when t=-\dfrac{1-\sqrt{21}}2\approx1.79.

The graph shows the relationship.....
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

Part A: That 6 pounds of rice costs $18

Part B: (1,3) represents the unit price

Part C: 4 pounds of rice, because $12/3 equals 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A: The first point, 6, is on the amount of rice axis and the second point, 18, is on the total cost axis.

Part B: The unit price means the price for just 1 of something, so if you go to 1 pound of rice on the graph, you see it's at 3 on the total cost axis. Which means that 1 pound of rice costs $3.

Part C: From Part B you know that 1 pound of rice equals $3. So if you spend $12, then you can divide that by $3 to see how many pounds of rice you bought. 12/3 equals 4, so you bought 4 pounds of rice. Or you can count by 3's until you get to 12: 3, 6, 9, 12. That's 4 times so that means you bought 4 pounds of rice.
