Answer: Meghan spent $687.5 per year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount of money that Scott spends per year for auto insurance.

Meghan spends 25% more each year for auto insurance than Scott. The value of 25% of the amount that Scott spends per year is

25/100 × x = 0.25 × x = 0.25x

Therefore, the amount that Meghan spends would be

x + 0.25x = 1.25x

If the amount that they spent together is $1237.50 per year, it means that

x + 1.25x = 1237.5

2.25x = 1237.5

x = 1237.5/2.25

x = 550

The amount that Meghan spent per year would be

1.25 × 550 = 687.5

Given the function f(x) = 3x, find the value of f−1(81).
Shalnov [3]
Given the function f (x) = 3x, find the value of f-1 (81).
 For this case, the first thing you should do is rewrite the function.
 We have then:
 y = 3 ^ x
 From here, we clear the value of x:
 log3 (y) = log3 (3 ^ x)
 log3 (y) = x
 Then, we rewrite the function again:
 f (x) ^ - 1 = log3 (x)
 Now, we evaluate the inverse function for x = 81:
 f (81) ^ - 1 = log3 (81)
 f (x) ^ - 1 = 4
 Answer:
 the value of f-1 (81) is: 
 f (x) ^ - 1 = 4

I have having a problem with this equation 3(-2-3x) = -9x-4
inn [45]

Answer:

3(-2-3x) = 9x-4

-6-9x = 9x-4

-6+6-9x = 9x-4+6

-9x = 9x+2

-9x-9x = 9x-9x+2

-18x = 2

-18x÷(-18) = 2÷(-18)

x = -(1/9)

Thank you
