Step-by-step explanation:

The snowplow's speed is 40 mph minus the loss from the snow, which is 1.2 mph times the depth of snow in inches.

y = 40 − 1.2x

When y = 0:

0 = 40 − 1.2x

1.2x = 40

x = 33 ⅓

The snowplow stops moving when the snow is 33 ⅓ inches deep or more.

slope = (57 - 35)/(3 - 1) = 11

 

y = 11 x + b

 

35 = 11 (1) + b

b= 24

 

y = 11x + 24

 

y = 11(5) + 24 = 79

What is the inverse of the function f(x) = x + 2?
wolverine [178]
Turn f(x) into y so the equation is y=x+2. Now switch their places so it is x=y+2. Now solve for y. The answer is y=x-2.
