Answer:
f^-1(x) = (x +4)/3
Step-by-step explanation:
The inverse function is found by swapping x and y, then solving for y.
y = 3x -4 . . . . . function y = f(x)
x = 3y -4 . . . . . inverse relation
x +4 = 3y . . . . add 4
(x +4)/3 = y . . . divide by 3. This is the inverse function
f^-1(x) = (x +4)/3
Answer:
x=11, y=2
Step-by-step explanation:
We can set 1 equal to x-5y and then solve for x. and y.
x = 5y+1
y = x-1/5
We can use this information and plug back in the values for 3y-x or x-5y.
We can set -3 = 3y-x or 1 = x-5y.
To solve for x using -3 = 3y-x we can swap the values of x and y which would make it -3 = 3(x-1/5)-5(x-1/5)+1.
We can do a bit of algebra which would get us x = 11.
Knowing that y = x-1/5 we can plug in 11 for x. y = 11-1/5.
y=2
x=11, y=2
Answer:
(c, d) = (25, 35)
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply the first equation by 2.5 and subtract the second one:
2.5(c +d) -(2.5c +1.75d) = 2.5(60) -(123.75)
0.75d = 26.25 . . . . . . . . . simplify
26.25/0.75 = d = 35 . . . . divide by the coefficient of d
60 -d = c = 25 . . . . . . . . . use the first equation to find c
(c, d) = (25, 35)
