Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you must find the slope of the line using the formula (y2-y1/x2-x1). For your problem that would be (8-0/-2-4)= -4/3.

Then, you would plug in the slope and the y-intercept into the slope-intercept formula (y=mx+b), where m is the slope and b is the y intercept (4).

Your answer would be y=-4/3x+4

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle

tan A = $\frac{opposite}{adjacent}$ = $\frac{BC}{AC}$ = $\frac{7}{8}$ , then

∠ A = $tan^{-1}$ ( $\frac{7}{8}$ ) ≈ 41° ( to the nearest degree )

The sum of the angles in the triangle = 180° , then

∠ B + 41° + 90° = 180°

∠ B + 131° = 180° ( subtract 131° from both sides )

∠ B = 49°

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle

AB² = BC² + AC² = 7² + 8² = 49 + 64 = 113 ( take square root of both sides )

AB = $\sqrt{113}$ ≈ 10.6 ( to the nearest tenth )

Which pair of funtions is not a pair of inverse functions? please help!!

antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

$f(x)=\frac{x}{x+20} , g(x)=\frac{20x}{x-1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

To find the inverse of a function, exchange variables x for y and y for x. Then clear the y-variable to get the inverse function.

we will proceed to verify each case to determine the solution of the problem

case A) $f(x)=\frac{x+1}{6} , g(x)=6x-1$

Find the inverse of f(x)

Let

y=f(x)

Exchange variables x for y and y for x

$x=\frac{y+1}{6}$

Isolate the variable y

$6x=y+1$

$y=6x-1$

Let

$f^{-1}(x)=y$

$f^{-1}(x)=6x-1$

therefore

f(x) and g(x) are inverse functions

case B) $f(x)=\frac{x-4}{19} , g(x)=19x+4$

Find the inverse of f(x)

Let

y=f(x)

Exchange variables x for y and y for x

$x=\frac{y-4}{19}$

Isolate the variable y

$19x=y-4$

$y=19x+4$

Let

$f^{-1}(x)=y$

$f^{-1}(x)=19x+4$

therefore

f(x) and g(x) are inverse functions

case C) $f(x)=x^{5}, g(x)=\sqrt[5]{x}$

Find the inverse of f(x)

Let

y=f(x)

Exchange variables x for y and y for x

$x=y^{5}$

Isolate the variable y

fifth root both members

$y=\sqrt[5]{x}$

Let

$f^{-1}(x)=y$

$f^{-1}(x)=\sqrt[5]{x}$

therefore

f(x) and g(x) are inverse functions

case D) $f(x)=\frac{x}{x+20} , g(x)=\frac{20x}{x-1}$

Find the inverse of f(x)

Let

y=f(x)

Exchange variables x for y and y for x

$x=\frac{y}{y+20}$

Isolate the variable y

$x(y+20)=y$

$xy+20x=y$

$y-xy=20x$

$y(1-x)=20x$

$y=20x/(1-x)$

Let

$f^{-1}(x)=y$

$f^{-1}(x)=20x/(1-x)$

$\frac{20x}{1-x}\neq \frac{20x}{x-1}$

therefore

f(x) and g(x) is not a pair of inverse functions

You buy 24 keyboards for $120 each less 15%. What is your subtotal before taxes?

kotykmax [81]

First, you need to take the 15% off from the $120 so it will make it easier for you to calculate later. Since there is 15% off, your $120 becomes only $102. Since your keyboards only costs $102 each now, you just have to multiply the number of keyboards you wanted to the less price. $102 multiplied by 24 keyboards is equals to $2,448. We don’t have to add taxes because it is stated that we are just looking for SUBTOTAL before taxes. The answer is A. $2,448.
