k = - 2

evaluate h(2), equate to 18 and solve for k

h(2) = - 2k + 14 = 18 ( subtract 14 from both sides )

- 2k = 4 ( divide both sides by - 2 )

k = - 2

h(x)= -kx + 14

18 = -k*2 + 14 since x=2

18 = -2k +14

subtract 14 from each side

4 = -2k

divide by -2

-2 =k

Which of the following is the inverse of y=3x?

shtirl [24]

Answer-

The inverse of $y=3^x$ is

$\boxed{\boxed{y=\log_3 x}}$

Solution-

The given function is,

$y=3^x$

We can get the inverse by interchanging he variable x and y among themselves and then separating each variables.

So in the inverse would be,

$\Rightarrow x=3^y$

Taking log of both sides,

$\Rightarrow \log x=\log 3^y$

As,

$\log a^b=b\times \log a$

Applying the same,

$\Rightarrow \log x=y\times \log 3$

$\Rightarrow y=\dfrac{\log x}{\log 3}$

As,

$\log_b a=\dfrac{\log a}{\log b}$

Applying the same,

$\Rightarrow y=\log_3 x$

Therefore, the inverse of $y=3^x$ is $y=\log_3 x$ .

PLZ ANSWER URGENT A).1+ 4x+2/2x=5x b).2x-2+3x/4=2x

Elena L [17]

Divide the numbers

1 + 4x 2/2 • x =5x

1 + 4x + 1x =5x

Multiply by 1

1 + 4x + 1x=5x

Combine like terms

1 + 4x + x =5x

1 + 5x =5x

Subtract 1 from both sides of the equation

5x + 1 = 5x

5x + 1 - 1 =5x -1

Simplify

Subtract the numbers

5x = 5x -1

Subtract 5x from both sides of the equation

5x = 5x -1

5x - 5x = 5x -1 -5x

Simplify

0= -1

Result

0= -1
