Answer:

f and g are not inverse of each other.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the two functions are inverses of each other, then f(g(x)) = g(f(x))

We are given two functions:

f(x) = 6x + 5

g(x) = 6x - 5

Let's find f(g(x)) and g(f(x))

f(g(x)) = f(6x - 5)

= 6(6x - 5) + 5

= 36x - 30 + 5

f(g(x)) = 36x - 25

Now let's find g(f(x))

g(f(x)) = g(6x + 5)

= 6(6x + 5) - 5

= 36x + 30 - 5

g(f(x))= 36x + 25

We see that f(g(x)) ≠ g(f(x))

Therefore, f and g are not inverse of each other.

F(x) = 6x + 5
g(x) = 6x - 5
f(g(x)) = 6(6x - 5) + 5 = 36x - 30 + 5 = 36x - 25
g(f(x)) = 6(6x+ 5) - 5 = 36x + 30 - 5 = 36x + 25

f and g are not inverse of each other.

Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

The correct option is C. About 1 on the side with the 1 on top and 4 on the bottom yard.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Simone measures the width of one of cardboard strip as 1/2 yard.

A second cardboard strip measures 5/6 yard in width.

We need to find the combined width.

The combined width of the cardboard strip:

$\frac{1}{2} + \frac{5}{6}=\frac{8}{6}=1\frac{1}{3}$

$1\frac{1}{3}$ is closer to $1\frac{1}{4}$ as compare to $1\frac{1}{2}$

Hence, the correct option is C. About 1 on the side with the 1 on top and 4 on the bottom yard.

Joey is creating a rectangular garden. The garden is 9 feet long and 7 feet wide. Joey calculated he needs feet of fencing to cl

Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

Amount of fencing: 32 feet

Amount of soil: 63 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Fencing: In a rectangle, the opposite side is the same length. So we do:

9+7+9+7 = 32 feet

Soil: The soil is the area. Area is equal to length times width. Length is 9 and width is 7, so we do:

9 x 7 = 63 feet squared
