Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

8x + 8y = 2 -------(1)

8x + 5y = 1 -------(2)

subtract equation (2) from equation (1)

The 8x will be eliminated, leaving us with;

3y = 1

Divide bothside of the equation by 3

y = 1/3

substituting y = 1/3 in equation (1)

8x + 8y = 2

8x + 8(1/3) = 2

8x + 8/3 = 2

subtract 8/3 from both-side

8x + 8/3 -8/3 = 2 -8/3

8x = 2 - 8/3

8x = 6 - 8 / 3

8x = - 2/3

Divide both-side of the equation by 8

8x / 8 = -2/3 ÷ 8

x = -2/3 × 1/8

x = -1 / 12

Gina wants to ride the waves at flagship pier in Galveston so she rents a surfboard for 5$ per hour plus an initial or beginning
Aneli [31]
If Gina has $90 and pays:

$20 for beginning
$5 per hour

Then 90 - 20 is 70. 70 divided by 5 is 14.

She can rent a surfboard to surf for 14 hours.

Find the inverse of the function.<br> y=x2 + 4x + 4
adoni [48]

Answer: To find the inverse of the function, we need to make x as a function of y and at the final step make a switch between x and y (i.e. make x as y and y as x)

y = x² + 4x + 4  ⇒⇒⇒ factor the quadratic equation

y = (x+2)(x+2)

y = (x+2)²         ⇒⇒⇒ take the square root to both sides

√y = x+2

x = √y - 2         ⇒⇒⇒ x becomes a function of y

final step:

∴ y = √x - 2   ⇒⇒⇒ the inverse of the given function

So, as a conclusion:

f(x) = y = x² + 4x + 4  ⇒⇒⇒ the given function

f⁻¹(x) = y = √x - 2       ⇒⇒⇒ the inverse of the given function
