If x is divided by 2 and then 4 is subtracted, then the function is f left parenthesis x right parenthesis equals x divided by 2

The inverse is y = x/2 - 4

Steps involved are -

  1. replace f(x) with y:   y = 2(x + 4)
  2. Then switch y and x:   x = 2(y + 4)
  3. Finally make y the subject:
  4. x = 2(y + 4)
  5. x/2 = y + 4      (divide by 2)
  6. x/2 - 4 = y       (subtract 4)
  7. So, the inverse is y = x/2 - 4

<h3>What is the formula for inverse function?</h3>
  • In mathematics, the inverse function of a function f (also called the inverse of f) is a function that undoes the operation of f.
  • The inverse of f exists if and only if f is bijective.
  • f-1(y) = y/2 = x, is the inverse of f(x).

Solve by completing the square x^2+6x+13=0
notka56 [123]

Answer:

x = -3 + 2 i or x = -3 - 2 i

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

x^2 + 6 x + 13 = 0

Hint: | Solve the quadratic equation by completing the square.

Subtract 13 from both sides:

x^2 + 6 x = -13

Hint: | Take one half of the coefficient of x and square it, then add it to both sides.

Add 9 to both sides:

x^2 + 6 x + 9 = -4

Hint: | Factor the left hand side.

Write the left hand side as a square:

(x + 3)^2 = -4

Hint: | Eliminate the exponent on the left hand side.

Take the square root of both sides:

x + 3 = 2 i or x + 3 = -2 i

Hint: | Look at the first equation: Solve for x.

Subtract 3 from both sides:

x = -3 + 2 i or x + 3 = -2 i

Hint: | Look at the second equation: Solve for x.

Subtract 3 from both sides:

Answer: x = -3 + 2 i or x = -3 - 2 i

Find the roots of the polynomial equation.<br><br> 2x3 + 2x2 – 19x + 20 = 0
d1i1m1o1n [39]
First, find any zero of the polynomial. Since you didn't ask for work, I'll assume it's okay if I use my calculator. Your given polynomial has only one real root which is x=-4.

Now we use the rule that x-a divides the polynomial where a is a zero of said polynomial.

So x+4 divides 2x^3+2x^2-19x+20. 
<span>(2x^3+2x^2-19x+20) / (x+4 equals 2x^2-6x+5).
 
If we factor out a two, we can use the quadratic formula.

2(x^2-3x+2.5) so we have x = (-(-3)+/-(9-4*1*2.5)^(1/2))/2*1)=(3+i)... or (3-i)/2 Where i is the square root of negative one. final answer:
2x^3+2x^2-19x+20=0
 
then x=-4, (3+i)/2, or (3-i)/2
</span>we have two imaginary number.
I hope it helped you

Determine the value of the angle.<br> Angle FDE=
irina [24]

Answer:

angle fde = 37 degree

Step-by-step explanation:

we have,

angle bdc = angle fde

for angle bdc

adf = 90, adb = 53

let the value be x

=>             90+53+x = 180

=>             143+x = 180

=>             x = 180 - 143

=>             x = 37

bdc = 37

so, fde = 37
