$x=7\\\\\text{because}\\\\a^{-n}=\dfrac{1}{a^n};\ a\neq0\\\\(-j)^{-7}=\dfrac{1}{(-j)^7}$

$\text{Minus in a power means inverse.}$

$a^{-1}=\dfrac{1}{a}\\\\(-j)^{-7}=(-j)^{7\cdot(-1)}=\left[(-j)^7\right]^{-1}=\dfrac{1}{(-j)^7}\\\\\text{Used:}\\\\(a^n)^m=a^{n\cdot m}$

Suppose the invertible function φ(x) has the domain (−5,11) and the range (−12,1).

Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

Range of $\phi^{-1}$ is (−5,11).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the invertible function Ф(x) which has the domain (−5,11) and the range (−12,1).

Invertible function is the function that inverses another function i.e if y=Ф(x) then x=g(y) where g is called the inverse of Ф and denoted by $\phi^{-1}$

Given Ф(x) the function whose domain is (−5,11) and range is (−12,1). Therefore, by definition of invertible function there exist a function g with domain (−12,1) and range (−5,11) which is called the inverse function denoted by $\phi^{-1}$

Hence, Range of $\phi^{-1}$ is (−5,11)

Find Dy/dX when x^y×y^x=1

victus00 [196]

by dy/dx, we'll be assuming that "y" is encapsulating a function, a function in terms of "x".

$x^y\cdot y^x=1\implies \stackrel{\textit{\large product rule}}{\stackrel{\textit{chain rule}}{yx^{y-1}(1)}\cdot y^x+x^y\cdot \stackrel{\textit{chain rule}}{xy^{x-1}\cdot \frac{dy}{dx}}}~~ = ~~0 \\\\\\ y^{1+x}x^{y-1}+x^{y+1}y^{x-1}\cdot \cfrac{dy}{dx}=0\implies \cfrac{dy}{dx}=\cfrac{-y^{1+x}x^{y-1}}{x^{y+1}y^{x-1}} \\\\\\ \cfrac{dy}{dx}=-~~ y^{(1+x)-(x-1)}~~x^{(y-1)-(y+1)} \\\\\\ \cfrac{dy}{dx}=-~~ y^2x^{-2}\implies \cfrac{dy}{dx}=\cfrac{-y^2}{x^2}$
