Kendra used these steps to solve the equation 2x + 5 = 3 + 2(x + 1). Which choice describes the meaning of her result, 5 = 5?

7 0

Hello!

We can solve this algebraically

2x + 5 = 3 + 2(x+1)

Distribute the 2

2x + 5 = 3 + 2x + 2

combine like terms

2x + 5 = 2x + 5

Since both sides of the equation is the same all values of x make the equation true

The answer is A

Hope this helps!

Let f be a differentiable function such that f(3)=15, f(6)=3, f ' (3)= -8, and f ' (6)= -2. The function g is differentiable and

Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

A. $g'(3)=-\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that f be a differentiable function such that $f(3)=15$ , $f(6)=3$ , $f'(3)= -8$ , and $f'(6)= -2$ . The function g is differentiable and $g(x)= f^{-1} (x)$ for all x.

We know that when one function is inverse of other function, so:

$g(f(x))=x$

Upon taking derivative of both sides of our equation, we will get:

$g'(f(x))*f'(x) =1$

$g'(f(x))=\frac{1}{f'(x)}$

Plugging $x=6$ into our equation, we will get:

$g'(f(6))=\frac{1}{f'(6)}$

Since $g(x)= f^{-1} (x)$ , then $g'(f(6))=g'(3)$ .

$g'(3)=\frac{1}{f'(6)}$

Since we have been given that $f'(6)= -2$ , so we will get:

$g'(3)=\frac{1}{-2}$

$g'(3)=-\frac{1}{2}$

Therefore, $g'(3)=-\frac{1}{2}$ and option A is the correct choice.
