Find the inverse of f(x)=2x-3.
1) replace "f(x)" with "y." Then y=2x-3.
2) interchange x and y. Then x=2y-3. x+3
3) solve this result for y. Then 2y=x+3, or y=----------------
2
-1 -1 x+3
4) replace y with f (x): f (x) = ---------
2
This is the procedure, with the answer given.
Answer:
6x-1/x^5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = -8
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 3x + 14
2x - 3y = -14
So, what is the substitution? Y of course, this is because y is equal to 3x + 14.
2x - 3 (3x + 14) = -14
Multiply 3 with the numbers in the parentheses.
2x - 9x + 42 = -14
So you maybe be wondering why it is a negative 7 instead of subtracting 9 with 2. Using PEMDAS, we always read from left to right. So it is basically 2 -9 and you get -7.
-7x + 42 = -14
Then subtract 42 from both sides.
-7x + 42 - 42 = -14 - 42
Simplify
-7x = -56
Divide 7 by both sides.
-7x / 7 = -56 / 7
x = -8
And you might ask, why we get x instead afterwards. This is because both -7 and 7 cancel each other out leaving us with x.
Answer:
8/9 sorry if wrong
Step-by-step explanation:
Let named variables as you said g- guinea pigs and c- chinchillas
System of equation is:
First is: c+ g = 60,005
Second is: c= 2g+5
When we replace second in first we get:
2g+5+g = 60,005 => 3g+5= 60,005 => 3g= 60,000
g=60.000/3 = 20,000 => g=20,000
When this result we replace in the second equation we get
c= 2 * 20,000 +5= 40,000+5 = 40,005
c= 40,005
Good luck!!!!
