No, they forgot to switch variable labels after solving for the independent variable...
y=-8x+4
y-4=-8x
(y-4)/-8=x
Now that you have solved for the independent variable x, you switch the variable labels...
y=(x-4)/-8
f^-1(x)=(x-4)/-8 which should really be rewritten as:
f^-1(x)=(4-x)/8 :P
Answer:
33
Step-by-step explanation:
If you simplify what the question is saying, it's basically..
8 is 24% of <u>what number?</u>
To find out, you can simply set up an equation.
((24% = 0.24 as a decimal (move the decimal point two times to the left))
8 = 0.24 x N (N is just the 'whole')
To solve, you just need to divide 8 ÷ 0.24. So, N = 33.333 repeating.
The question says to round to the nearest whole number, so the answer would just be 33.
The rock's height is increasing in the interval from 0 seconds to 3 seconds.
At time 0 the rock starts moving upward from 52 foot until it reachs 180 foot height (time 3 seconds). Then the rock starts to descend, which means that the height starts to decrease.
-2 (-30) - 3y = 42
60 - 3y = 42
-3y = -18
y = 6
