Answer:

1/21.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the problem 'How long would they take to do the job working together?'  you would work in fractions of the job done / minute:

1/21 + 1/28 = 1/x.

So for person 1 the expression is 1/21.

Artyom0805 [142]

<u>Answer:</u>

B.    f^{-1}(x) = \frac{x + 3}{9}

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

let \space\ y = f(x)\\\\y = 9x -3\\

• Now make x the subject of the equation:

9x = y + 3\\\\x = \frac{y + 3}{9} \\

• Replace x with f⁻¹(x) and y with x:

f^{-1}(x) = \frac{x + 3}{9}

What is the sum 5/3 +(1/5) please and explain
solmaris [256]
We need to find a common denominator(bottom number of fraction)

5/3 = 25/15 (multiply both top and bottom by 5)
1/5 = 3/15 (multiply both top and bottom by 3)

Now since the denominator is the same we can add to get 25/15 + 3/15 = 28/15

4x−3=16=4(x−3)=16 <br> Do they have the same solution?
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

no

Step-by-step explanation:

4x -3 = 16

x=19/4

4(x-3) = 16: Distribute the number in the parenthesis with 4 and you get:

4x-12=16

x=7

4x-12=16 is not the same as 4x-3=16

Therefore they do not have the same solution.
