The answer is:  " f ⁻¹(x)  = \frac{x}{2}  + 5 " . 
____________________________________________________

Explanation:

____________________________________________________

Given the function:  " f(x) = 2x <span>− 10 " ;  Find the "inverse function" .

Let "f(x)" be represented by "y" ; and rewrite:

    y = 2x </span><span>− 10 ; 

Change the "y" to an "x" ;  and change to "x" to a "y" ; as follows:
___________________________________________________
    x = 2y </span><span>− 10 ; 

Now, rewrite this equation, in "slope-intercept form";  that is;  "y = mx + b" ; 

To do this, start by solving THIS equation for "y"; in terms of "x" ; with "y" as an "isolated variable" on the "left-hand side" of the equation; 
___________________________________________________
 We have: 
___________________________________________________
   " x = 2y </span><span>− 10 " ; 

Add "10" to each side of the equation; as follows:

    x + 10 = 2y </span><span>− 10 + 10 ; 

to get:

     x + 10 = 2y ; 

</span>↔  2y = x + 10 ;
<span>
Now, divide each side of the equation by "2" ; 
       to isolate "y" on one side of the equation (as a single variable); 
       & to solve for "y" ; 

</span>→  2y / 2 = (x + 10) / 2 ; 
<span>
to get: 

</span>→    y = (x/2)  + (10/2) ; 

→    y = (x/2) + 5 ; 
<span>
Now, rewrite the equation, by substituting:  " f </span>⁻¹(x) " ;  in place of the "y" ;                     to indicate that this function is an "inverse function; as follows:
 
→   " f ⁻¹(x)  = \frac{x}{2}  + 5 " . 
______________________________________________________

The answer is:  " f ⁻¹(x)  = \frac{x}{2}  + 5 " .

Lana71 [14]
We know that
the number 9.35
is equal to 
9+0.35
and
0.35  is equal to
35/100
divide by 5 both members
\frac{35}{100} = \frac{7}{20}

therefore

the number 9.35  is equal to  9  \frac{7}{20}

Solve the equation for z <br>5z-8=32<br>A. z=4<br>B. z=4.8<br>C. z=6<br>D. z=8​
nadezda [96]

Answer:

Z=8 is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

first, you add 8 to both sides which leaves you with 5z=40. then after that you divide both sides by 5 which leaves you with 5/5z = 40/5. then buy dividing 5 by 5 its leaves you with 1 which is equal to z because blank variables equal 1. On the other side if the equation 40 by 5 is 8 so that leaves you with z=8
