Answer:

87.73 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the dimensions of the rectangular doorway are,

Length = 6 ft 8 inches = 80 inches and Width = 3 feet = 36 inches.

Using Pythagoras Theorem, we will find the diagonal of the rectangular doorway.

i.e. hypotenuse^{2}=length^{2}+width^{2}

i.e. hypotenuse^{2}=80^{2}+36^{2}

i.e. hypotenuse^{2}=6400+1296

i.e. hypotenuse^{2}=7696

i.e. Hypotenuse = ±87.73 inches

Since, the length cannot be negative.

So, the length of the diagonal is 87.73 inches.

As, the largest side of a rectangle is represented by the diagonal.

So, the largest dimension that will fit through the doorway without bending is 87.73 inches.

If f(x)=4(3x-5), find f^-1(x)
Margaret [11]

Answer:

f^-1(x) = (x+20) / 12

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 4(3x-5)

Let y be the image of f.

y = 4(3x-5)

y = 12x-20

y+20 = 12x

x = (y+20) / 12

f^-1(y) = (y+20) / 12, so

f^-1(x) = (x+20) / 12
