Answer:
4
3
0
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = y = -1/2 × sqrt(x+3)
2y = -sqrt(x+3)
4y² = x + 3
x = 4y² - 3
now renaming this, so that the normal symbols and names are used for this function definition, so that the input variable is called "x" :
f-1(x) = 4x² - 3
basically, just by itself, this function would be defined for all possible real values of x.
but because it is the inverse of the original function, which generates only values of y<=0, then for the inverse function that same range applies for its input variable x
x<=0
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
The expression can be rearranged to ...
b = 3 -9/(a+5)
In order for b to be an integer, (a+5) must be an integer divisor of 9. There are exactly 6 of those: ±1, ±3, ±9.
The attached table shows the values (a, b) = (x₁, f(x₁)).
Answer:
1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Note there is a common ratio between consecutive terms, that is
768 ÷ 1536 = 0.5
384 ÷ 768 = 0.5
192 ÷ 384 = 0.5
96 ÷ 192 = 0.5
This indicates that the terms form a geometric sequence with
= a
where a is the first term and r the common ratio
Here a = 1536 and r = 0.5, thus
= 1536 ×
= 1.5
