2. If you used the 23 cm basketball as your Moon sphere, how big

Mathematics

Ok so I heard this question a few times already and couldn't remember how it went so I decided to put my brain to the test, I used my algebra to use and complete it.

If the Earth were shrunk down to the size of a basketball (radius:4.69 inches) the Moon would be a tennis ball (radius: 1.2768 inches, to be exact) 23.5 feet away.

The Sun would be a 42.6-foot sphere (source) located 1.7 miles away.

The closest star, Proxima Centauri, would still be 463,151 miles away – almost twice the distance of the actual moon."

If f(x)=3x+2, find f(f^-1(14))
krek1111 [17]
F(x) = 3x + 2x = 3f-1(x) + 2x - 2 = 3f-1(x)(x - 2)/3 = f-1(x)(14 - 2)/3 = f-1(14)12/3 = f-1(14)4 = f-1(14)   f(f-1(14)) = f(4)f(4) = 3(4) + 2f(4) = 12 + 2f(4) = 14 A function and its inverse are inverse operations, like addition and subtraction. They undo each other. f(f-1(x) = x

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's do the obvious things first.

Right rectangle

w = 11

L = 17

Formula

Area = L * W

Area = 11 * 17

Area =                                                187

Left rectangle

W = 8

L = 11

Area = 8 * 11=                                      88

Middle Rectangle

W = 11

L = 15

Area = 11 * 15                                    165

Now we come to the triangles. It's not obvious what to do with them. You have to infer that one of the lets is 8 and the other is 15. You get the 8 from the width of the left rectangle (see above.)

There are 2 triangles

Area = 2 * 1/2 * l1 * l2

Leg 1 = 8

Leg2 = 15

Area = 2 * 1/2 (8 * 15)

Area =               <u>                            120 </u>

Total  = 120 + 165 + 88 + 187 =    560

Unless you have an  E answer that is 560, my answer does not agree with any of the given answers. I would suggest that you ask your teacher how it is done. My method is correct.
