What are factors of -40?
(-20)(2)
(-10)(4)   (sum of these factors is 6, which is not what we wanted)
(-5)(8) = -40 and the sum of the factors (-5) and (8) is 3.

{-5, 8} is the list of factors of -40 that add up to 3.

F(x)=2x+1/x-1 then f^-1(1)​
olasank [31]

Answer:

  • f⁻¹(x) = (x + 1) / (x - 2)
  • f⁻¹(1 ) = - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given function:</u>

  • f(x) = (2x + 1) / (x - 1)

<u>Find its inverse, substitute x with y and f(x) with x, solve for y:</u>

  • x = (2y + 1) / (y - 1)
  • x(y - 1) = 2y + 1
  • xy - x = 2y + 1
  • xy - 2y = x + 1
  • y(x - 2) = x + 1
  • y = (x + 1) / (x - 2)

<u>Substitute y with f⁻¹(x):</u>

  • f⁻¹(x) = (x + 1) / (x - 2)

<u>Find  f⁻¹(1 ):</u>

  • f⁻¹(1 ) = ( 1 + 1) / (1 - 2) = 2 / - 1 = - 2

Use completing the square to determine which of the following gives the solutions to 3x2 - 24x + 40 = 28.
jeka94

Answer:

x=4+2\sqrt{3}

x=4-2\sqrt{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Completing the square</u>

when  ax^2+bx+c=0

Given equation:

3x^2-24x+40=28

Subtract 40 from both sides:

\implies 3x^2-24x=-12

Divide both sides by 3:

\implies x^2-8x=-4

Add the square of half the coefficient of x to both sides:

(\frac{b}{2})^2=(\frac{-8}{2})^2=16

\implies x^2-8x+16=-4+16

Factor the left side and simplify the right side:

\implies (x-4)^2=12

Square root both sides:

\implies x-4=\pm\sqrt{12}

Add 4 to both sides and simplify the radical:

\implies x=4\pm\sqrt{4 \cdot 3}

\implies x=4\pm\sqrt{4}\sqrt{3}

\implies x=4\pm2\sqrt{3}
