Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
let : y = x² - 8
calculate : x
x² = y + 8
x exist : y + 8 ≥ 0
x = √(y + 8) or x = - √(y + 8)
conclusion :
if : x ≥ 0 the inverse of f(x) is : g(x) = √(x + 8)
if : x ≤ 0 the inverse of f(x) is : h(x) = - √(x + 8)
Each dive goes further down, so it represents -50 ft (not positive which would represnt going up).
y= -125-50x
We know that there are 3 dives so plug that in for x
y= -125-50(3)
y= -125-150
y= -275
Final answer: -275 ft
The answer to your question is Y
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
We can use some logarithmic rules to solve this easily.
<em>Note: Ln means
</em>

Now, lets start with the equation:

Writing left side with logarithmic base e, we have:

We can now use the property shown below to make this into exponential form:

So, we write:

We recognize another property of exponentials:

So, we write:

Also, another property of natural logarithms is:

Now, we simplify:

This is the answer.
