Answer: The age of the twins is 10 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose the age of older sister be x

Let the age of twins sister be x-9, as they are born after 9 years.

Product of their ages be

x(x-9)(x-9)\\\\=x(x^2-18x+81)\\\\=x^3-18x^2+81x

Sum of their ages will be

x+x-9+x-9\\\\=3x-18

According to question,

1861+3x-18=x^3-18x^2+81x\\\\x^3-18x^2+81x-3x+18-1861=0\\\\x^3-18x^2+78x-1843=0\\\\x=19

So, Age of older sister will be 19 years.

Age of the twins will be

19-9=10\ years

Hence, the age of the twins is 10 years.

The speed of the international space station is 27,576 kilometres per hour.
Dmitriy789 [7]
(27576km/hr)(24hr/day)(orbits/42600km)=orbits/day=15.53

So the station makes 15 FULL orbits per day

(27576km/h)(1000m/km)(h/3600s)=7660m/s

When comparing the functions using the equation, which conclusion can be made?
ankoles [38]

Answer:

  domain of f(x) is x ≤ 0; domain of f^-1(x) is x ≥ 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The square root function will always give a positive value, so the opposite of the square root function will give non-≤positive values. That means ...

  • the domain of f(x) is restricted to non-positive values
  • the domain of the inverse function is restricted to values of x that make the root be of a non-negative number: x ≥ 4

The domain of f(x) is x ≤ 0; the domain of f^-1(x) is x ≥ 4.
