Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define Equation</u>
3(4x - 5) - 4x + 1 = -6
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Distribute 3: 12x - 15 - 4x + 1 = -6
- Combine like terms: 8x - 14 = -6
- Isolate <em>x</em> term: 8x = 8
- Isolate <em>x</em>: x = 1
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitute in <em>x</em>: 3(4(1) - 5) - 4(1) + 1 = -6
- Multiply: 3(4 - 5) - 4 + 1 = -6
- Subtract: 3(-1) - 4 + 1 = -6
- Multiply: -3 - 4 + 1 = -6
- Subtract: -7 + 1 = -6
- Add: -6 = -6
Here we see that -6 does indeed equal -6.
∴ x = 1 is the solution to the equation.
Let f(x)=y
f^-1(x)=x
y=1/(x+5) - 1
y+1=1/(x+5)
(x+5)=1/(y+1)
x=1/(y+1)-5
f^-1(x)=1/(x+1) -5
denominator cannot equals to zero
x+1≠0
x≠-1
answer
B
Answer:
<u>Equation</u>: 
<u>The balance after 5 years is: $1742.43</u>
<u></u>
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a compound growth problem . THe formula is:
Where
F is future amount
P is present amount
r is rate of interest, annually
n is the number of compounding per year
t is the time in years
Given:
P = 1500
r = 0.03
n = 12 (compounded monthly means 12 times a year)
The compound interest formula modelled by the variables is:
Now, we want balance after 5 years, so t = 5, substituting, we get:
<u>The balance after 5 years is: $1742.43</u>
Answer:
He must study for at least 7.5 hours each week
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to know the number of hours that Mr Smith must study each week
From the question, we are told that he must study a minimum of 60 hours total over the course of the 8 weeks
The number of hours he must study each week will be 60/8 = 7.5 minimum number of hours each week
The answers is A because if you do the math it shows that
