What is the inverse of x-2

Mathematics

SCORPION-xisa [38]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

y = x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression x-2 is from the equation y = x - 2.

To find the inverse of the equation, <u>switch the "x" and "y" variables</u>, then solve  or <u>isolate for "y"</u>, meaning to separate it from the other numbers.

y = x - 2     Original equation

x = y - 2     Switched "x" and "y" variables

x + 2 = y - 2 + 2     Add 2 to both sides to cancel out '-2' on the side with "y"

x + 2 = y    

y = x + 2     Variable is on left side in standard formatting

To isolate, do the reverse operation for the number you want to get rid of.

On the side with "y", I wanted to get rid of '-2' so I could separate "y" from everything else. '+2' is the reverse operation for '-2'.

If a sweatshirt is on sale for 35% and now costs $52, <br>what was the original price?​
STatiana [176]
The original price was $70.2. (If it’s not supposed to have cents then it’s just $70).

This is because you convert 35% to 1.35. Then, you multiply 52 by 1.35. That’ll give you 70.2.

Determine the solution to the following system of equations: 2x+4y=-12 x+2y=-2
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

undefined/no solution

Step-by-step explanation:

you use elimination to solve. So multiply 2x+4y=-12 by 1 and x+2y=-2 by 2. then you subtract 2x+4y=-12 by 2x+4y=-4 and get 0y=-8. Anything divided by 0 is undefined/no solution because you can't divide anything by 0.
