Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:
Given

Solving (a): Write as inverse function

Represent a(d) as y

Swap positions of d and y

Make y the subject


Replace y with a'(d)

Prove that a(d) and a'(d) are inverse functions
and 
To do this, we prove that:

Solving for 

Substitute
for d in 




Solving for: 

Substitute 5d - 3 for d in 

Add fractions



Hence:

The correct answer is <span>16666666666/100000000000.</span>
Positive product:
(-2/5)(-2/5)
(2/5)(2/5)
negative product:
(-2/5)(2/5)
(2/5)(-2/5)

First, we combine the terms on the left side of the equation to simplify the equation. Then we divide both sides by -3. k then equals 1/3.
To check, we plug in our value for k into the original equation:

We found k to be 1/3, so for every instance of k, we plug in 1/3. To simplify, we combine the left side to get -1, and we combine the right side to get -1.
Since -1 = -1, our solution is correct.
