$(3x^2 - 4x + 1) + (-x^2 + x - 9)=\\3x^2-4x+1-x^2+x-9=\\2x^2-3x-8$

= (6x+4x+1)+(-2x+x-9)
= (2x+1)+(-x-9)
= 2x+1-x-9
= x-8

Suppose a car has a rating of 4.8 gallons per 100 miles. What is the miles-per-gallon rating of this car?

bezimeni [28]

Answer:

The miles-per-gallon rating of this car is 20.83.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved by a rule of three.

What is the miles-per-gallon rating of this car?

How many miles for 1 gallon?

4.8 gallons are used for 100 miles. So

4.8 gallons - 100 miles

1 gallon - x miles

$4.8x = 100$

$x = \frac{100}{4.8}$

$x = 20.83$

The miles-per-gallon rating of this car is 20.83.

Determine whether f(x) = 5x+1/x and g(x)= x/ 5x+1 are inverse functions explain how you know. please explain in steps or worded

Len [333]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

Discussion:

If the functions are inverses, then f(g(x)) = x for appropriate x. Consider x = 1.

g(1) = 1/ (5(1) + 1) = 1/6

f(g(1)) = f (1/6) = 5(1/6) + 1/ (1/6) = 5/6 + 6 = 6 5/6 <> 1

Conclusion: f(g(1)) <> 1 so the functions are not inverses

Thank you,
