Answer:

$h(x) = \frac{x-1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The inverse function is the function which when plugged in to the original one yields the argument (x).

Knowing this we do the following, let h(x) be the inverse function of f:

$f(x)=2x+1 \ \ \ \ f(h(x)) = 2(h(x)) + 1 = x\\h(x) = \frac{x-1}{2}\\Now \ we \ verify \ if \ it \ yields \ x.\\f(h(x)) = f(\frac{x-1}{2}) = 2(\frac{x-1}{2}) + 1 = x -1 + 1 = x\\Thus \ h(x) \ is \ the \ inverse\ function \ of \ f$

Answer:

y=0.5(x-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the inverse of a function, you have to substitute yfor x in the equation and simplify to get a normal equation again. In this case, f(x) is y.

y=2x+1

x=2y+1

2y+1=x

2y=x−1

y=0.5(x−1)

So there you have it.

Answer:

It takes less time sending 5 letters the traditional way with a probability of 36.7%.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we must take into account that:

- The traditional method is distributed X ~ Poisson(L = 1)

- The new method is distributed X ~ Poisson(L = 5)

$P(X=x)=\frac{L^{x}e^{-L}}{x!}$

Where L is the intensity in which the events happen in a time unit and x is the number of events.

To solve the problem we must calculate the probability of events (to send 5 letters) in a unit of time for both methods, so:

- For the traditional method:

$P(X=5)=\frac{1^{5}e^{-1}}{1!}\\\\P(X=5) = 0.367$

- For the new method:

$P(X=5)=\frac{5^{5}e^{-5}}{5!}\\\\P(X=5) = 0.175$

According to this calculations we have a higher probability of sending 5 letters with the traditional method in a unit of time, that is 36.7%. Whereas sending 5 letters with the new method is less probable in a unit of time. In other words, we have more events per unit of time with the traditional method.

Hello!

By using a certain formula, a repeating number with two repeating digits will always become the number out of 99. In our case, we would get $\frac{27}{99}$ .
