Answer:

5 days

Step-by-step explanation:

This would have to do with average. So if one does it in 6 days and the other does it in 4 days, you would do the number between them. So 5 is between 4 and 6.

The more complicated way of thinking of it is like this...

add 6 and 4           6+4     that  would  =   10

Because we added two numbers, we have to divide by two.

10/2      which equals 5.

If it was numbers closer together like. 6 and 7 the middle numbeR would be 6.5 for example.

I hope this helped!!

If f(x)=4(3x-5), find f^-1(x)
Margaret [11]

Answer:

f^-1(x) = (x+20) / 12

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 4(3x-5)

Let y be the image of f.

y = 4(3x-5)

y = 12x-20

y+20 = 12x

x = (y+20) / 12

f^-1(y) = (y+20) / 12, so

f^-1(x) = (x+20) / 12
