2x=y
×+y=36
x=Ed's age
y=His brothers age
Then you plug in Y into the secound equation.
×+2×=36.
You then add the two x together.
3x=36
The to get x by itself you take 36 and dive by 3 to get 12.
x=12
Then plug 12 into the equation
12+y=36
Then get y by itself.
y=24.
So, Ed's age is 12 and Ed's brother's age is 24.

If f(2x–1) = x+2, then what is the value of f⁻¹(2x–1)?
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

So F(x+3) = (x+3+5)/2 = (x+8)/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given F(2x-1) = x+2

Put 2x-1 = y=> x = (y+1)/2

Hence F(y) = (y+1)/2 +2 = (y+5)/2

So F(x) = (x+5)/2

So F(x+3) = (x+3+5)/2 = (x+8)/2.

To find how much lemonade the pitcher can hold, you will add the amounts that he drank and remained to get a total.  This total would be the starting amount.
