Answer:

Depends on what you mean by 1/4x (see below)

Step-by-step explanation:

For 1/4(x)

1/4x+5 = 4 -> subtract 5 from both sides

1/4x = -1 -> multiply both sides by 4

x = -4

For 1/(4x)

1/4x+5 = 4 -> subtract 5 from both sides

1/4x = -1 -> cross multiply (-1 = -1/1)

-4x = 1 -> divide both sides by -4

x = -1/4

For which function is f(x) equal to f^1(x) ( answer choices in picture )

Sonja [21]

Answer:

C. $f(x)=\frac{x+1}{x-1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the inverse of each of the given options.

Option A:

$f(x)=\frac{x+6}{x-6}\\y=\frac{x+6}{x-6}$

To find $f^{-1}(x)$ , replace 'x' with 'y' and 'y' with 'x'. This gives,

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

Rewrite in terms of 'y'. This gives,

$x(y-6)=y+6\\xy-6x=y+6\\xy-y=6x+6\\y=\frac{6x+6}{x-1}$

The given function $y=\frac{6x+6}{x-1}\ne y=\frac{x+6}{x-6}$

So, option A is incorrect.

Option B:

$f(x)=\frac{x+2}{x-2}\\y=\frac{x+2}{x-2}$

To find $f^{-1}(x)$ , replace 'x' with 'y' and 'y' with 'x'. This gives,

$x=\frac{y+2}{y-2}$

Rewrite in terms of 'y'. This gives,

$x(y-2)=y+2\\xy-2x=y+2\\xy-y=2x+2\\y=\frac{2x+2}{x-1}$

The given function $y=\frac{2x+2}{x-1}\ne y=\frac{x+2}{x-2}$

So, option B is incorrect.

Option C:

$f(x)=\frac{x+1}{x-1}\\y=\frac{x+1}{x-1}$

To find $f^{-1}(x)$ , replace 'x' with 'y' and 'y' with 'x'. This gives,

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

Rewrite in terms of 'y'. This gives,

$x(y-1)=y+1\\xy-x=y+1\\xy-y=x+1\\y=\frac{x+1}{x-1}$

The given function $y=\frac{x+1}{x-1}\ equals\ y=\frac{x+1}{x-1}$

So, option C is correct.

Option D:

$f(x)=\frac{x+5}{x-5}\\y=\frac{x+5}{x-5}$

To find $f^{-1}(x)$ , replace 'x' with 'y' and 'y' with 'x'. This gives,

$x=\frac{y+5}{y-5}$

Rewrite in terms of 'y'. This gives,

$x(y-5)=y+5\\xy-5x=y+5\\xy-y=5x+5\\y=\frac{5x+5}{x-1}$

The given function $y=\frac{5x+5}{x-1}\ne y=\frac{x+6}{x-6}$

So, option D is incorrect.

Therefore, only option C is correct.

F(x) = x2 − 8x + 15 g(x) = x − 3 h(x) = f(x) ÷g(x)

olasank [31]

Hello :
x²-8x+15 = (x-3)(x-5)
h(x) = f(x) ÷g(x) = (x-3)(x-5)/(x-3)= x-5
