Inverse notation f^-1 used In a pure mathematics problem is not always used when finding inverses of applied problems. Rather, t

he Inverse of a function such as C= C(q) will be q= q(C). The following problem illustrates this idea.
The ideal body weight W for men (in kilograms) as a function of height h (m inches) is given by the following function.

W(h)= 49+2.2(h-60)

Required:
a. What is the ideal weight of a 6-foot male?
b. Express the height h as a function of weight W. Verify your answer by checking that W(h(W)) = W and h(W(h))h.

Answer:

a) 75.4 kg

b) h(W)=\frac{W+83}{2.2}

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The ideal weight of a 6-foot (72 inches) male is given by simply applying h= 72 in to the expression:

W(72) = 49+2.2(72-60)\\W(72) =75.4\ kg

b) Expressing height as a function of weight:

W(h)= 49+2.2(h-60)\\2.2h-132+49=W\\h(W)=\frac{W+83}{2.2}

Verifying with W(h(W)):

W(h(W))= 49+2.2(\frac{W+83}{2.2} -60)\\W(h(W))= 49-132+W+83\\W(h(W))=W

Verifying with h(W(h):

h(W(h))=\frac{(49+2.2(h-60))+83}{2.2}\\h(W(h))=\frac{(49+2.2h-132+83)}{2.2}\\h(W(h))=h

Li Ping says a square with 3 inch sides has greater area than a parallelogram that is not a square but has sides that have the s
Kipish [7]

Answer:

Li Ping's statement makes sense.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a square with side lengths a inches is given by, A_1 = a^{2}.

Now, the area of a parallelogram with equal sides a inches, which is not a square is given by, A_2 = ah, where, h is the perpendicular distance between the opposite sides.

See the diagram attached.

Since a is the hypotenuse of as right triangle with height h, hence, a > h.

So, A_1 > A_2

Therefore, Li Ping's statement makes sense. (Answer)

BartSMP [9]

Answer:

30 mL

Step-by-step explanation:

Mr. Allen needs 100 mL of a solution that is

  • 30% vinegar,
  • 15% lemon juice,
  • 55% water.

Thus, there are

100\cdot 0.3=30\ mL of vinegar,

100\cdot 0.15=15\ mL of lemon juice,

100\cdot 0.55=55\ mL of water.
