Answer:

151

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the smaller integer and y = the larger integer.

We have two conditions:

(1)   x + 1 = y

(2)       y =  2x - 149      Substitute (1) into (2)

    x + 1 = 2x - 149        Add 150 to each side

x + 150 = 2x                 Subtract x from each side

        x = 150                Substitute into (1)

150 +1 = y

       y = 151

The larger integer is 151.

<em>Check: </em>

(1) 150 + 1 = 151

          151 = 151

(2)       151 = 2×150 -149

          151 = 300 -149

          151 = 151

When dealing with little odds you must know one part and the whole part. For number 1 a fraction , 7 is a part of a 11 which is the whole. For 2 a percent, 6% part and 100% whole, here you had to know that for 6% to exist there had to be a 100% . For 3 a ratio, the first number is part (2) and the second is whole (7). Look at pic for all work.

Given f(x)= 3x+2, what is the Inverse Function?
Grace [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we must determine the inverse of the following function:

f(x)=3x-2

Step 1:

We would write

y=f(x) or y=3x-2

Step 2:

We clear x:

y+2=3x

\frac{y+2}{3}=x

Step 3:

"x" and "y" are exchanged:

y=\frac{x+2}{3}

The inverse is:

f^{-1}(x)=\frac{x+2}{3}
