Answer:

12 ft  and 25 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

a part is x ft and the other is (2x+1) ft

so 37= x  + 2x+1

   37= 3x+1

  -1        -1

   36= 3x

    :3     :3

   x= 36:3

  I=  x= 12 ft

 II= 2x+1=2*12+1=25 ft

dexar [7]

Answer:

f^{-1}(x)=\frac{1}{2}+\sqrt{x-\frac{3}{4}}

Step-by-step explanation:

y=x^2-x+1

We want to solve for x.

I'm going to use completing the square.

Subtract 1 on both sides:

y-1=x^2-x

Add (-1/2)^2 on both sides:

y-1+(-1/2)^2=x^2-x+(-1/2)^2

This allows me to write the right hand side as a square.

y-1+1/4=(x-1/2)^2

y-3/4=(x-1/2)^2

Now remember we are solving for x so now we square root both sides:

\pm \sqrt{y-3/4}=x-1/2

The problem said the domain was 1/2 to infinity and the range was 3/4 to infinity.

This is only the right side of the parabola because of the domain restriction. We want x-1/2 to be positive.

That is we want:

\sqrt{y-3/4}=x-1/2

Add 1/2 on both sides:

1/2+\sqrt{y-3/4}=x

The last step is to switch x and y:

1/2+\sqrt{x-3/4}=y

y=1/2+\sqrt{x-3/4}

f^{-1}(x)=1/2+\sqrt{x-3/4}

How to factor 4x^2+7x-15
GuDViN [60]
4x^2+7x-15

Break the expression into group:

(4x^2+5x)+(12x-15)

factor out x from 4x² - 5x : x (4x-5)
factor out 3 from 12x-15 : 3 (4x-5)

=x(4x-5)+3(4x-5)

factor out common term (4x-5) :

= (4x-5)(x+3)

hope this helps!
