Answer: The inverse of the linear function f(x)=2x+1 is f^(-1) (x) = (1/2)x-1/2


Solution

f(x)=2x+1

y=f(x)

y=2x+1

Isolating x: Subtracting 1 both sides of the equation:

y-1=2x+1-1

y-1=2x

Multiplying both sides of the equation by 1/2:

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

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

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

Changing "x" by "f^(-1) (x)" and "y" by "x":

f^(-1) (x) = (1/2)x-1/2

1. Which graph models the equation y = 3.5x?
MAXImum [283]
1) is C because the line is increasing not decreasing and it goes up 7 & right 2.
2) the y-intercept is -2 and the slope is up 3 over 1, so the answer has to be B
3) the answer is A because the up 2 over 3
4) the y-intercept is a positive 4, and the slope is going down 3 and to the right 5, and the line is decreasing so you know it has to be negative. the answer is D

lyudmila [28]
1. You have that the circle that defines the part of the planter wall which gets watered by the sprinkler is: (x−10)²+(y+12)²<span>=36.
 
 2. The standard form for the equation of a circle is:
 
 (x-h)</span>²+(y-k)²=r²
 
 (h,k) is the center point.
 r is the radius.
 
 3. Keeping this on mind, you can find the value of the radius, as below:
 
 r²=36
 r=√36
 r=6 m
 
 4. Then, the diameter of the circle is:
 
 D=2r
 D=2(6m)
 D=12 m
<span> 
 What is the diameter, in meters, of the circular area that gets watered by the sprinkler?</span>  
 
 The answer is: 12 m
