What is the product of 8x-3 and x2- 4x +8
Dmitriy789 [7]
A product is the answer that you get when you multiply numbers together. So for this problem, you have 2 groups to multiply together. Since I cannot show a square or cubed x, I will put an x2 for x squared and an x3 for x cubed. You have to multiply each number in the first parentheses by each number in the second parentheses. Then combine any like sets.

(8x-3)(x2-4x+8)
8x3-32x2+64x-6x+12x-24
8x3-32x2+70x-24

So the answer is 8x cubed minus 32x squared plus 70x minus 24. Whew! That's a long one. Hope I didn't miss anything.

What is the inverse of the function?<br> f(x) = 1/3x-5
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

        -1

       f   (x) = -3(x + 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

1)  in f(x) = 1/3x-5, replace f(x)= with y= as follows:  y = (1/3)x - 5

2) interchange x and y, obtaining:  x = (1/3)y - 5

3) solve this result for y:  (1/3)y = -x - 5, or -(x + 5).  Next, multiply both sides by                        3 to eliminate the fraction (1/3):  y = -3(x + 5)

4)  replace y with the symbol for "inverse of f(x);

        -1

       f   (x) = -3(x + 5)
