Answer:

Number of 12$ Shares? 25

Number of 14$ Shares? 57

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = number of $12 shares.

Let y = number of $14 shares.

"Ivan has $1098 worth of $12 and $14 stock shares."
12x + 14y = 1098

The number of $14 shares is seven more than twice the number of $12 shares.

y = 2x + 7

We have a system of equations.

12x + 14y = 1098

y = 2x + 7

We can use the substitution method since the second equation is already solved for y. Substitute 2x + 7 for y in the first equation.

12x + 14(2x + 7) = 1098

12x + 28x + 98 = 1098

40x = 1000

x = 25

There are 25 $12 shares.

y = 2x + 7 = 2(25) + 7 = 57

There are 57 $14 shares.

Check:

25 × $12 + 57 × $1`4 = $300 + $798 = $1098

The total value is correct, so the answer is correct.

Find the inverse of the function f f (x )<br><br> equals 9 x + 7
MrMuchimi

<em>Note: Your question seems a little bit ambiguous. So, I am assuming the given function f(x)=9x+7.</em>

<em>Thus, I am solving based on it. It would still clear your concept. </em>

Answer:

The inverse of f(x)=9x+7

  • \frac{x-7}{9}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function

f(x)=9 x + 7

A function g is the inverse of function f if for y=f(x), x=g(y)

Replace x with y

x=9y+7

solve for y

9y=x-7

y=\:\frac{x-7}{9}

Therefore,

The inverse of f(x)=9x+7 is:

  • \frac{x-7}{9}

i.e.

\mathrm{Inverse\:of}\:9x+7:\quad \frac{x-7}{9}

Farah harvests 20 pounds of tomatoes from her garden. She needs 4 4/5 pounds to make a batch of soup. Additionally, if she uses
Romashka [77]

Answer:

1 batch

Step-by-step explanation:

Farah needs 4 and 4/5 pounds of tomatoes & and additional 5 and 3/5 pounds of tomatoes to make soup.

4.8 + 5.6 = 10.5 pounds per soup

10.5*2 = 21 > 20 pounds

Farah would need one more pound of tomatoes in order to make 2 batches of soup. Therefore she can only make 1 batch.

Is f(x)=e^2 an exponential function? If so what is its base? If not, why?
makkiz [27]

Answer:

No. It is a constant function.

Step-by-step explanation:

The function f(x) = e^2 is not an exponential functional. Rather, it is a constant function. The reason for this is that in f(x) = e^2, there is no x involved on the right hand side of the equation. The approximate value of e is 2.718281, and the approximate value of 2.718281^2 is 7.389051. This means that f(x) = e^2 = 7.389051. It is important to note that for any value of x, the value of the function remains fixed. This is because the function does not involve the variable x in it. The graph of the function will be a line parallel to the x-axis, and the y-intercept will be 7.389051. For all the lines parallel to x-axis, the value of the function remains the same irrespective of the value of x. Also, the derivative of the function with respect to x is 0, which means that the value of the function is unaffected by the change in the value of x!!!
