The answer is an equation, a condition:

f(x) = f^(-1)(x), then apply f(x) again: f(f(x) ) = f(f^-1(x)) = x,

f(f(x)) =x, that means that:

The point of intersection is the point where applying f(x) twice it results in the identity. A similar argument takes you to f^(-1)(f^(-1)(x)) = x.

Furthermore, the final answer is the point where f(x)=x (which coincides with f^(-1)(x)=x). That is the value of x where the function crosses the line y=x. If there is no such point, then f(x) and f^(-1)(x) will never cross each other.

I can see the proof graphically, so I can't post it.

For a line, it always works:

f(x) = ax+b, f^(-1)(x) = (x-b)/a,   ax+b = (x-b)/a --> a^2x+ab=x-b,

x = -(a+1)*b/(a^2-1) = -b/(a-1). Which is indeed where f(x)=x.

Answer:

Point of intersection of two graph: It is defined as the point at which where both graph cut to each other.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that f(x) and its inverse function is f^{-1{(x) are poltted on the same coordinate plane.

We have to find the point of intersection.

Point of intersection of two graph: It is defined as the point at which where both graph cut to each other and value of both functions are equal at the point.

Suppose a function f(x)=2x+1

f^{-1}(x)=\frac{x-1}{2}

Substitute x=-1 then we get

f(-1)=2(-1)-+1=-1

f^{-1}(-10)=\frac{-1-1}{2}=-1

Therefore, the point of intersection is (-1,-1) because the value of both functions are equal at this point.

Can someone help me.
Sauron [17]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: 20°

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

m∠XZY = 40

m∠XZB = 20

Process

1.- Find the measure of ∠ XAB

   ∠XAB = 40°   because AB ║ YZ

2.- Find the measure of ∠ZAB

     ∠ZAB + ∠XAB = 180

    ∠ZAB = 180 - ∠XAB

    ∠ZAB = 180 - 40

    ∠ZAB = 140°

3.- Find the measure of ∠ABZ

    The sum of the internal angles in a triangle equals 180°

     ∠AZB + ∠ZAB + ∠ABZ = 180

     20° + 140° + ∠ABZ = 180

     ∠ABZ = 180 - 20 - 140

    ∠ABZ = 20°

<em>if 5 is to be rounded off, then the rule is, if the next significant digit is equal or greater than 5 it adds up, other wise not..</em>
<em>In this case the next significant digit is 0 which is less than 5 so it will not be added up.</em>
