First off, just to remind you, to get the "inverse relation" of any expression, you first do a quick switcharoo on the variables, and then solve for "y", or whatever the dependent is.  So let's do so.

\bf \stackrel{f(x)}{y}=3x-\cfrac{1}{2}\qquad inverse\implies \boxed{x}=3\boxed{y}-\cfrac{1}{2}
\\\\\\
x+\cfrac{1}{2}=3y\implies \cfrac{x+\frac{1}{2}}{3}=y\implies \cfrac{x+\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{3}{1}}=y\implies \left( x+\cfrac{1}{2} \right)\cfrac{1}{3}=y
\\\\\\
\cfrac{x}{3}+\cfrac{1}{6}=y\impliedby f^{-1}(x)\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\\cfrac{(4)}{3}+\cfrac{1}{6}=f^{-1}(4)\implies \cfrac{8+1}{6}=f^{-1}(4)\implies \cfrac{9}{6}=f^{-1}(4)
\\\\\\
\cfrac{3}{2}=f^{-1}(4)

Answer:

  • 10 m and 50 m

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Given</h3>
  • l = 5w
  • A = 500 m²
<h3>To find</h3>
  • Length and width
<h3>Solution</h3>

Area formula

  • A = lw
  • A= 5w*w= 5w²
  • 5w² = 500
  • w²= 100
  • w = √100
  • w = 10 m

Then

  • l = 5w = 5*10 m = 50 m
