Inverse function details
Lerok [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

First, replace f(x) with y ⇒ f(x)=6x-19 ⇒ y=6x-19

Then y with x and x with y  ⇒ y=6x-19 ⇒ x=6y-19

Solve the equation from for y:

           x=6y-19

           x+19=6y dividing with 6

           1/6 x +(19/6) = y

Replace y with f−1(x) ⇒ f−1(x)= 1/6 x +(19/6)

hope this helps!

What is the value of y in the sequence below<br> 2, У, 18,-54, 162
Maslowich

Answer:

<em>y=-6</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Geometric Sequences</em>

Any given sequence is said to be geometric if each term a_n can be obtained as the previous term a_{n-1} by a constant value called the common ratio.

a_n=a_{n-1}.r

or equivalently

a_n=a_1.r^{n-1}

Looking closely at the sequence 2, y, 18,-54, 162 we can try to find out if it's a geometric sequence or not. We compute the possible common ratios

\displaystyle \frac{162}{-54},\ \frac{-54}{18} and we see they both result -3. If we use r=-3 and try to find the second term (y), then

y=2*(-3)=-6

Now we compute the third term: (-6)(-3)=18

Since we got the third term as given in the original sequence.

So y=-6

A community college has a math placement exam that has a mean of 65 and a standard deviation of 8.2. If a student takes the exam
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

The score that cuts off the bottom 2.5% is 48.93.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this question, we have that:

\mu = 65, \sigma = 8.2

What is the score that cuts off the bottom 2.5%

This is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.025, so X when Z = -1.96.

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

-1.96 = \frac{X - 65}{8.2}

X - 65 = -1.96*8.2

X = 48.93

The score that cuts off the bottom 2.5% is 48.93.
