we have that


*-------------------------*--------------------------------*

E                            F                                     G


EF=2x-12

FG= 3x-15

EG=23


we know that


EF + FG = EG


so

[2x - 12] + [3x - 15] = 23 simplify

5x - 27 = 23 add 27 to both sides

5x = 50 divide both sides by 5

x = 10

EF=2x-12-------> EF=2*10-12-------> EF=8

FG= 3x-15------> FG=3*10-15------> FG=15



therefore


the answer part a) is

the value of x is 10


the answer part b) is

the value of EF is 8


the answer part c) is

the value of FG is 15

Find the inverse function for y=3/4+x
Sonja [21]

The inverse of this function is y = x - \frac{3}{4}


You can find the inverse of any function by switching the x and y values and then solving for the new y value. Once you've done that, what will be left over is the inverse function.


y = \frac{3}{4} + x ----> Swap x and y

x = \frac{3}{4} + x -----> Subtract 3/4 from both sides.

x - \frac{3}{4} = y ----> rearrange to appropriate order

y = x - \frac{3}{4}


And that is your inverse function.
