B=books
Sold half of book: b/2
Bought six more: b/2+
Now has 12: b/2+6=12
Subtract 6 on both sides: b/2+6-6=12-6
b/2=6
Multiply both sides by 2: b=12
Answer= 12 books

Answer:

  f^-1(x) = 4+∛((x-6)/5)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the inverse function, solve ...

  x = f(y)

then write the answer in functional form.

  \displaystyle x=f(y)\\\\x=5(y-4)^3+6\\\\x-6=5(y-4)^3\\\\\frac{x-6}{5}=(y-4)^3\\\\\sqrt[3]{\frac{x-6}{5}}=y-4\\\\y=4+\sqrt[3]{\frac{x-6}{5}}\\\\\boxed{f^{-1}(x)=4+\sqrt[3]{\frac{x-6}{5}}}

__

The graph shows the function and its inverse to be reflections of each other in the line y=x, as they should be.

A customer goes to a bank and gets change for a $100 bill. The change is to be in $1, $5, and $10 bills. There were four times a
alexira [117]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

x = number of $1 bills

y = number of $5 bills

z = number of $10 bills

We know that:

x + y + z = 25 (total amount of bills)

x + 5y + 10z = 100 (total amount of money)

y = 4z (Given)

Substitute the third equation into the first one.

x + 4z + z = 25

x = 25 - 5z

Put this into the second equation.

(25 - 5z) + 5 (4z) + 10z = 100

Simplify and solve.

25 - 5z + 20z + 10z = 100

25z + 25 = 100

25z = 75

z = 3

Substitute this into y = 4z

y = 4 * 3

y = 12

So, there are 12 $5 bills.

6. Order these fractions from least to<br> greatest:<br> 2/3<br> 7/12<br> 3/4
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

2/3 = 8/12

7/12 = 7/12

3/4 = 9/12

7/12 < 8/12 < 9/12

So, 7/12 < 2/3 < 3/4
