To solve for x
bx=-7
divide b on both sides
x=-7/b

to solve for b
bx=-7
divide x on both sides
b=-7/x

A certain drink is made by adding 4 parts water to 2.5 part drink mix. What percent of the mixture is water? Omit % sign in your

Maru [420]

The mixture contains 61.5% of water.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Total parts = 4+ 2.5 = 6.5

Parts of water =4

parts of drink = 2.5

Percent of water in the mixture = 4 × 100/ 6.5

= 400/6.5

= 61.53%

It is rounded to the nearest tenth as 61.5%.

PLEASE HELP ASAP <br>are f(x)=4/x-2-1 and g(x)=3/x+2-2 inverses of each other?

GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

To find the inverse of:

$f (x)=\dfrac{4}{x-2}-1$

Set the function to y:

$\implies y=\dfrac{4}{x-2}-1$

Rearrange to make x the subject:

$\implies y+1=\dfrac{4}{x-2}$

$\implies (y+1)(x-2)=4$

$\implies xy-2y+x-2=4$

$\implies xy+x=2y+6$

$\implies x(y+1)=2y+6$

$\implies x=\dfrac{2y+6}{y+1}$

Swap x and y:

$\implies y=\dfrac{2x+6}{x+1}$

Change y to the inverse of the function sign:

$\implies f$ $\:^{-1}(x)=\dfrac{2x+6}{x+1}$

Rewrite g(x) as a fraction:

$g(x)=\dfrac{3}{x+2}-2$

$\implies g(x)=\dfrac{3}{x+2}-\dfrac{2(x+2)}{x+2}$

$\implies g(x)=\dfrac{3-2(x+2)}{x+2}$

$\implies g(x)=\dfrac{3-2x-4}{x+2}$

$\implies g(x)=-\dfrac{2x+1}{x+2}$

Therefore, as the inverse of f(x) ≠ g(x), the functions are NOT inverses of each other

What is it then please

nalin [4]

a) because the denominators are the same add the numerators:

1 1/5 + 3 2/5 = 4 3/5

b) rewrite the fractions to have a common denominator:

1/2 = 3/6

1/3 = 2/6

Now subtract:

4 3/6 - 1 2/6 = 3 1/6
