<h3>The value of y is 1.6</h3><h3>The value of x is 4.5</h3>

By elimination:

2x + 5y = 17

6x - 5y = 19

We can add the second equation to the first in order to isolate one variable.

(2x + 5y) + (6x - 5y)

8x = 17

Because we added the left side, we have to add the right side here as well.

17 + 19 = 36

8x = 36

Divide both sides by 8

x = 4.5

We can plug this value back into the original equation to find the value of y.

2(4.5) + 5y = 17

9 + 5y = 17

Subtract 9 from both sides.

5y = 8

Divide both sides by 5.

y = 1.6

If f(g(x)) = g(f(x)) = x, and g(x) = 2 + In(x + 1), find f(4).

Dmitriy789 [7]

If $f(g(x))=g(f(x))=x$ , then $g$ and $f$ are inverses of one another. So we know $g(f(4))=4$ .

$g(f(4))=2+\ln(f(4)+1)=4$

$\implies\ln(f(4)+1)=2$

$\implies f(4)+1=e^2$

$\implies\boxed{f(4)=e^2-1}$

Jack is playing a game. When a player wins 3 consecutive games, the player receives 10 bonus points and then the player’s total

svlad2 [7]

Let Jack's current point is $p$

After winning 3 consecutive games, the bonus point is given by
$b(p)=p+10$

The score after 5% = 0.05 increase is
$s(p)= (1+0.05)p=1.05p$

$(s.b)(p)=1.05(p+10)=1.05p+10.5$
