The quadratic equation for this would be f(x) = 5x^2 - 10x - 120.

In order to find that, we need to start by taking our x intercept values and setting them equal to zero.

x = 6 ----> subtract 6 from both sides

x - 6 = 0

x = -4 ----> add 4 to both sides

x + 4 = 0

Now that we have both of these zero terms, we can multiply them to get a standard form.

f(x) = (x - 6)(x + 4)

And while this will give us the zeros we need, it will no give us the lead coefficient. So we must multiply by the desired lead coefficient.

f(x) = 5(x - 6)(x + 4)

f(x) = 5(x^2 - 6x + 4x - 24)

f(x) = 5(x^2 - 2x - 24)

f(x) = 5x^2 - 10x - 120

<h3>Answer:  2pi</h3>

2pi radians are equal to 360 degrees. After this point, the function f(x) = sin(x) repeats its values again. Each cycle is 2pi radians long.

Pls help me calculate the inverse of y equals 2x over x-7
NeTakaya
Y = 2x/x-7

x = 2y/y-7

xy - 7x = 2y

-7x = 2y - xy

-7x = y(2-x)

y = -7x / 2-x

y = 7x / x-2


f-¹(x) = 7x / x-2
