a. 15 students are members of both clubs

b. 50 students only are members of the mathematics club

c. 25 students only are members of the physics club

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is:

  • There are 100 students
  • 65 are members of a mathematics club
  • 40 are members of a physics club
  • 10 are members of neither club

We need to find how many students are members of

a. both clubs?

b. only mathematics club

c. only physics club

∵ The total number of students = 100

∵ 10 are members of neither club

- Subtract 10 from 100 to find the members of the mathematics

  club or the physics club

∵ 100 - 10 = 90

∴ There are 90 members of the mathematics club or physics club

∴ n(mathematics or physics) = 90

∵ 65 students are members of a mathematics club

∵ n(mathematics) = 65

∵ 40 students are members of a physics club

∴ n(physics) = 40

∵ n(mathematics or physics) = n(mathematics) + n(physics) - n(both)

∴ 90 = 65 + 40 - n(both)

∴ 90 = 105 - n(both)

- Add n(both) to each side

∴ n(both) + 90 = 105

- Subtract 90 from each side

∴ n(both) = 15

∴ 15 students are members of both clubs

a. 15 students are members of both clubs

∵ 65 students are members of the mathematics club

∵ 15 of them are members of the physics club

∴ n(mathematics only) = 65 - 15 = 50

∴ 50 students only are members of the mathematics club

b. 50 students only are members of the mathematics club

∵ 40 students are members of the physics club

∵ 15 of them are members of the mathematics club

∴ n(physics only) = 40 - 15 = 25

∴ 25 students only are members of the physics club

c. 25 students only are members of the physics club

1 - 3x = 3x + 1 solve for x
lakkis [162]

Answer: x = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

1 - 3x = 3x + 1

then add 3x on both sides

1 = 6x + 1

then subtract 1 on both sides

0 = 6x

then divide by 6 on both sides

0 = x

so x = 0

Solve the system using substitution:<br> y = -6x + 7<br><br> 3x – 2y = 16<br><br> helppp
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

x=-6 y=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

// Solve equation [2] for the variable  y  

 

 [2]    y = -x - 7

// Plug this in for variable  y  in equation [1]

  [1]    3x - 2•(-x -7) = -16

  [1]    5x = -30

// Solve equation [1] for the variable  x  

  [1]    5x = - 30  

  [1]    x = - 6  

// By now we know this much :

   x = -6

   y = -x-7

// Use the  x  value to solve for  y  

   y = -(-6)-7 = -1  

Solution :

{x,y} = {-6,-1}

The function of f(x) = 3x + 2 has a domain of -3 &lt; x &lt; 5. What is the domain of f-1(x)?
Flura [38]
<h3>Answer:    -7 < x < 17</h3>

====================================================

Explanation:

Plug in the lower bound of the domain, which is x = -3

f(x) = 3x+2

f(-3) = 3(-3)+2

f(-3) = -9+2

f(-3) = -7

If x = -3, then the output is y = -7. Since f(x) is an increasing function (due to the positive slope), we know that y = -7 is the lower bound of the range.

If you plugged in x = 5, you should find that f(5) = 17 making this the upper bound of the range.

The range of f(x) is -7 < y < 17

Recall that the domain and range swap places when going from the original function f(x) to the inverse f^{-1}(x)

This swap happens because how x and y change places when determining the inverse itself. In other words, you go from y = 3x+2 to x = 3y+2. Solving for y gets us y = (x-2)/3 which is the inverse.

-----------------------

In short, we found the range of f(x) is -7 < y < 17.

That means the domain of the inverse is -7 < x < 17 since the domain and range swap roles when going from original to inverse.
