(a)

In the function P(n) = 0.4n +5.7, P(n) is price of n grams of vitamins. So for the function x = P(n); x is price of n grams of vitamins.

The inverse of function determine amount of the vitamins for the known price of x dollars. So answer is,

The amount of vitamins (in grams) for a price of x dollars.

(b)

Let P(n) = x, So

x=0.4n+5.7

Replace n by x and x by n in the given equation.

n=0.4x+5.7

Simplify the equation for x.

\begin{gathered} n+0.4x+5.7 \\ n-5.7=0.4x \\ x=\frac{n-5.7}{0.4} \\ =\frac{10n-57}{4} \end{gathered}

So inverse of function is after interchange of variables,

P^{-1}(x)=\frac{10x-57}{4}

(c)

Substitute 8.3 for x in the inverse equation to obtain the valur of P^-1(8.3).

\begin{gathered} P^{-1}(8.3)=\frac{10\cdot8.3-57}{4} \\ =\frac{83-57}{4} \\ =\frac{26}{4} \\ =6.5 \end{gathered}

So answer is 6.5.

What is the area of the figure?
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

The shape has a total area of 14.96cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this all you need to do is take the area of the outer rectangle, and subtract the area of the inner rectangle.

The outer rectangle is 5.6 by 6.4 cm.  To get its area, just multiply those dimensions. When you do so you get the area 35.84cm².

Next the inner rectangle needs to be subtracted.  First though, we need its width, which we're not directly given.

We do however know the width of the entire shape, and the width of segments left after cutting out the inner rectangle.  All we need to do then is subtract the later from the former to the the inner rectangle's width:

5.6cm - 1.2cm - 0.8cm = 3.6cm

Great!  The inner rectangle has an area of 3.6cm × 5.8cm.  That gives us 20.88cm².

The final step is to subtract that 20.88 square cm from the 35.84 that we already have.  Doing so gives us a result of 14.96cm², and that is the final answer.

Answer:

See below description.

Step-by-step explanation:

The function f(x) = x^3-3x^2-4x has the following characteristics:

  • Factors: x(x+1)(x-4)
  • Zeros/roots: x=0, x=-1, amd x=4
  • Positive leading coefficient
  • Graph starts down and curves up through -1 on the x-axis and back down to cross through 0. It curves back up again through 4 and finished off heading into positive infinity.
  • Its graph is the shape of a sideways S.
  • It has a relative maximum at 1.128 and relative minimum value of -13.128
