Well logically thinking 16 could not be less than 3!, That is not a reliable answer but more of an opinion!

PLEASE HELP ASAP <br>are f(x)=4/x-2-1 and g(x)=3/x+2-2 inverses of each other?

GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

To find the inverse of:

$f (x)=\dfrac{4}{x-2}-1$

Set the function to y:

$\implies y=\dfrac{4}{x-2}-1$

Rearrange to make x the subject:

$\implies y+1=\dfrac{4}{x-2}$

$\implies (y+1)(x-2)=4$

$\implies xy-2y+x-2=4$

$\implies xy+x=2y+6$

$\implies x(y+1)=2y+6$

$\implies x=\dfrac{2y+6}{y+1}$

Swap x and y:

$\implies y=\dfrac{2x+6}{x+1}$

Change y to the inverse of the function sign:

$\implies f$ $\:^{-1}(x)=\dfrac{2x+6}{x+1}$

Rewrite g(x) as a fraction:

$g(x)=\dfrac{3}{x+2}-2$

$\implies g(x)=\dfrac{3}{x+2}-\dfrac{2(x+2)}{x+2}$

$\implies g(x)=\dfrac{3-2(x+2)}{x+2}$

$\implies g(x)=\dfrac{3-2x-4}{x+2}$

$\implies g(x)=-\dfrac{2x+1}{x+2}$

Therefore, as the inverse of f(x) ≠ g(x), the functions are NOT inverses of each other

If the radius of a circle is 10 feet, how long is the arc subtended by an angle measuring 81°?

gavmur [86]

If the angle is mesure in RADIANS then the arc is given by r. So first convert 81 degrees to radians, then multiply by r which is 10 x 81=810
