Answer:

A.) -9

Step-by-step explanation:

it is observed that triangles ABL and KML are similar triangles

hence the following ratios are valid:

LA / LK = LB/LM = AB/KM

we can see that LA/LK = LB/LM = 1/2

hence the above ratio becomes

1/2 = AB/KM (rearranging)

KM = 2AB

We are given that KM = (x + 21) and AB = (x + 15)

hence

KM = 2AB

(x + 21) = 2 (x + 15)

x + 21 = 2x + 30

x - 2x = 30 - 21

-x = 9

x = -9

Answer:

$f'(x) = 4x^2 - 3$ for $x \le -3$

Step-by-step explanation:

See attachment for proper question

Given

$f(x) = -\frac{1}{2}\sqrt{x + 3}$

For

$x \ge -3$

Required

Determine the inverse function

$f(x) = -\frac{1}{2}\sqrt{x + 3}$

Replace f(x) with y

$y = -\frac{1}{2}\sqrt{x + 3}$

Swap the positions of x and y

$x = -\frac{1}{2}\sqrt{y + 3}$

Multiply both sides by -2

$-2 * x =-2 * -\frac{1}{2}\sqrt{y + 3}$

$-2x =\sqrt{y + 3}$

Square both sides

$(-2x)^2 =(\sqrt{y + 3})^2$

$4x^2 =y + 3$

Make y the subject

$y = 4x^2 - 3$

The inverse has been solved. So, we need to replace y with f'(x)

$f'(x) = 4x^2 - 3$

Next, is to determine the interval

$x \ge -3$

Change inequality to $\le$

$x \le -3$

Hence, the inverse function is:

$f'(x) = 4x^2 - 3$ for $x \le -3$

How to find domain and range of a graph

Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

the domain refers to the set of possible input values, the domain of a graph consists of all the input values shown on the x-axis. The range is the set of possible output values, which are shown on the y-axis.

Evaluate 3/7r + 5/8s when r = 14 and s = 8.

Ahat [919]

In this question, plug in 14 for r and 8 for s, which will look like 3/98 + 5/64. Solve, and you will get 0.109 = 0.11.
