First, conceptually understand what an inverse function is, it makes solving it very intuitive. An inverse function is simply a function which has points (y,x) for every point (x,y) of the parent function. So you are essentially taking all points of the parent function and switching the x and y coordinates for each. Those switched coordinates are produced by the "inverse function".
Mathematically then, finding the inverse function is a matter of solving for x and then switching the variable labels. In this case:
y=2x+1 subtract 1 from both sides
y-1=2x divide both sides by 2
(y-1)/2=x now just switch the labels for the variables...
y=(x-1)/2 so
f^-1(x)=(x-1)/2 is the inverse of f(x)=2x+1
Answer:
Area covered by each girl = 2.5 acre
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Number of girls = 2
Total area = 5 acre
Find:
How much area covered by each girl
Computation:
Area covered by each girl = Total area / Number of girls
Area covered by each girl = 5 / 2
Area covered by each girl = 2.5 acre
Common ratio can be found by dividing the 2nd term by the first
r = 48/6
r = 8
an = a1 * r^(n-1)
n = term to find = 8
a1 = first number = 6
r = common ratio = 8
now we sub
a(8) = 6 * 8^(8-1)
a(8) = 6 * 8^7
a(8) = 6 * 2097152
a(8) = 12582912 <==
