Great Question!

The problem we have at hand is known to be a function, which maps elements from one set of objects, ( the domain ) onto another, the range. If we were to consider an ordered pair, say ( x, y ), then the function would map x onto y. The inverse function is simply the reverse. Take the ordered pair (-4,0). Function g would map - 4 onto 0, such that g( - 4 ) = 0. Therefore, the inverse function would map 0 onto - 4, resulting in g^{-1}( 0 ) = - 4. And there you have it! Our first part is answered!

____

This second bit here is interesting. Let y = h( x ) -

y = 4x + 3 - Switch x and y,

x = 4y + 3 - And now solve this equation for y,

x - 4y = 3,\\- 4y = - x + 3,\\y = 1 / 4x - 3 / 4

As you can see, we have taken the inverse of h( x ). As y = h( x ), we can thus conclude the following -

h^{-1}(x) = 1 / 4x - 3 / 4

____

The composition (h^-1 o h)(-5) is, in other words, h^-1(h(-5)). We can therefore calculate h(-5) and then take it's inverse -

h(-5) = 4(-5) + 3,\\h(-5) = - 20 + 3,\\h(-5) = - 17

Now we can take it's inverse -

h^{-1}(-17) = 1 / 4( - 17 ) - 3 / 4,\\- 17 / 4 - 3 / 4,\\= - 5!

Our solution for this last bit is - 5. And, if you don't feel like reading through this entire explanation just take a look at the " summed up " answer below,

g^{-1}( 0 ) = - 4,\\\\h^{-1}( x ) = 1 / 4x - 3 / 4,\\\\( h * h^{-1} )( - 5 ) = - 5  I do hope that helps you!

An aircraft factory manufactures airplane engines. The unit cost C (the cost in dollars to make each airplane engine) depends on
butalik [34]

Answer:

90 engines must be made to minimize the unit cost.

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertex of a quadratic function:

Suppose we have a quadratic function in the following format:

f(x) = ax^{2} + bx + c

It's vertex is the point (x_{v}, y_{v})

In which

x_{v} = -\frac{b}{2a}

y_{v} = -\frac{\Delta}{4a}

Where

\Delta = b^2-4ac

If a>0, the minimum value of the function will happen for x = x_v

C(x)=x²-180x+20,482

This means that a = 1, b = -180, c = 20482

How many engines must be made to minimize the unit cost?

x value of the vertex. So

x_{v} = -\frac{b}{2a} = -\frac{-180}{2(1)} = 90

90 engines must be made to minimize the unit cost.
