cc 2 4 6 8

12+8=20 12 sugar cookies (just make a table) :)

hope it helped

Total number of parts:
2+3=5.

Each part is:
20 cookies/ 5 parts= 4 cookies/part.

Number of chocolate cookies is:
4 cookies/part* 2 parts= 8 cookies.

Number of sugar cookies is:
4 cookies/part* 3 parts= 12 cookies.

There are 8 chocolate cookies and 12 sugar cookies~

Which pair of funtions is not a pair of inverse functions? please help!!

antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

$f(x)=\frac{x}{x+20} , g(x)=\frac{20x}{x-1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

To find the inverse of a function, exchange variables x for y and y for x. Then clear the y-variable to get the inverse function.

we will proceed to verify each case to determine the solution of the problem

case A) $f(x)=\frac{x+1}{6} , g(x)=6x-1$

Find the inverse of f(x)

Let

y=f(x)

Exchange variables x for y and y for x

$x=\frac{y+1}{6}$

Isolate the variable y

$6x=y+1$

$y=6x-1$

Let

$f^{-1}(x)=y$

$f^{-1}(x)=6x-1$

therefore

f(x) and g(x) are inverse functions

case B) $f(x)=\frac{x-4}{19} , g(x)=19x+4$

Find the inverse of f(x)

Let

y=f(x)

Exchange variables x for y and y for x

$x=\frac{y-4}{19}$

Isolate the variable y

$19x=y-4$

$y=19x+4$

Let

$f^{-1}(x)=y$

$f^{-1}(x)=19x+4$

therefore

f(x) and g(x) are inverse functions

case C) $f(x)=x^{5}, g(x)=\sqrt[5]{x}$

Find the inverse of f(x)

Let

y=f(x)

Exchange variables x for y and y for x

$x=y^{5}$

Isolate the variable y

fifth root both members

$y=\sqrt[5]{x}$

Let

$f^{-1}(x)=y$

$f^{-1}(x)=\sqrt[5]{x}$

therefore

f(x) and g(x) are inverse functions

case D) $f(x)=\frac{x}{x+20} , g(x)=\frac{20x}{x-1}$

Find the inverse of f(x)

Let

y=f(x)

Exchange variables x for y and y for x

$x=\frac{y}{y+20}$

Isolate the variable y

$x(y+20)=y$

$xy+20x=y$

$y-xy=20x$

$y(1-x)=20x$

$y=20x/(1-x)$

Let

$f^{-1}(x)=y$

$f^{-1}(x)=20x/(1-x)$

$\frac{20x}{1-x}\neq \frac{20x}{x-1}$

therefore

f(x) and g(x) is not a pair of inverse functions

A dolphin can swim up to 40 miles per hour.what is the speed in feet per hour?

zalisa [80]

In this question, the speed of the dolphin is already given, but the unit is different. The speed of the dolphin is given as 40 miles per hour and it has to be converted to feet per hour.
We already know that 1 mile = 5280 feet
Then
40 mile = 5280 * 40 feet
= 211200 feet
So the speed in feet per hour will be 211200 feet per hour. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand. You can always use this method for solving similar problems without requiring any help from outside.
