Step-by-step explanation:</h2>
A: f(x)=8x-2
1. Switch the f(x) to y
y=8x-2
2. Switch y to x and x to y
x=8y-2
3. Solve for y:
------------------------------
1. Add 2 to both sides.
x=8y-2
+2 +2
2. Divide both sides by 8.
x+2=8y
--- ---
8 8
1/8x+1/4=y
3. Write in f-inverse form
f^-1(x)=1/8x+1/4
B: g(x)=2/3x+6
1. Switch the g(x) to y
y=2/3x+6
2. Switch y to x and x to y
x=2/3y+6
3. Solve for y:
------------------------------
1. Subtract 6 from both sides.
x=2/3y+6
-6 -6
2. Multiply both sides by 3/2 (to cancel out the 2/3)
x-6=2/3y
2/3x-4=y
3. Write in f-inverse form
g^1(x)=2/3x-4
C: h(x)-4x-12
1. Switch the h(x) to y
y=-4x-12
2. Switch y to x and x to y
x=-4y-12
3. Solve for y:
------------------------------
1. Add 12 to both sides.
x=-4y-12
+12 +12
2. Divide both sides by -4
x+12=-4y
------ ---
-4 -4
-1/4x-3=y
3. Write in h-inverse form
h^2(x)=-1/4/x-3
The answer is 586.17 cm^2
Answer:
The n-th term of this sequence appears to be
3
n
−
1
,
n
≥
1
.
Step-by-step explanation:
These are powers of
3
ordered from
3
0
=
1
to
3
a
(for an integer
a
≥
1
). However, the first convenient value for
n
is
1
, not
0
(imagine saying the 0th term of a sequence). Because of that, since the first term is actually
3
0
, we need to start from the first term (
n
=
1
) being
3
1
−
1
. The next is
3
2
−
1
,
3
3
−
1
...
3
n
−
1
.
Answer: The difference is,

Step-by-step explanation:
Given expression is,

By distributive property,

Combine like terms( that have the same variables and powers ),

Which is the required result.
Hence, option third is correct.
