Multiple both sides by 5/1 and get

-1/1 • (x-4) = -10/1

divide the numbers and get

-1 • (x-4) = -10

remove the parentheses

- x-4 = 10

move the constant to the right

-x = -10-4

calculate

-x = -14

change the signs

x= 14

If f(x)=3x+2, find f(f^-1(14))
krek1111 [17]
F(x) = 3x + 2x = 3f-1(x) + 2x - 2 = 3f-1(x)(x - 2)/3 = f-1(x)(14 - 2)/3 = f-1(14)12/3 = f-1(14)4 = f-1(14)   f(f-1(14)) = f(4)f(4) = 3(4) + 2f(4) = 12 + 2f(4) = 14 A function and its inverse are inverse operations, like addition and subtraction. They undo each other. f(f-1(x) = x

Solve the quadratic equation by factoring: 15x^2+4x-4=0
joja [24]
We can factor by grouping. To do so, we multiply the leading coefficient with the constant at the end. In other words, a times c (ax^2 + bx + c).

15*-4 = -60

Now we need to split the b term into two pieces that multiply to -60 and add to 4.

-6 and 10 will work.

Now group one part of b with the 15x^2 and the other part with -4.

(15x^2 + 10x) + (-6x - 4)

Now factor both terms.

5x(3x+2) - 2(3x+2)

3x+2 is one of our factors and 5x-2 is the other.

(3x+2)(5x-2)=0

Now just find the zeros.

3x+2 = 0
3x = -2
x = -2/3

And

5x-2 = 0
5x = 2
x = 2/5

So the answer is x = -2/3 and x = 2/5
