It is the number twenty

RSB [31]3 years ago

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

This reads mathematically exactly how it is stated in words.  The word "is" means =, the word "of" means multiply, and "what number" is x.  Therefore, the equation from that looks like this:  16 = .80x.  Don't forget that you cannot use a percent in an equation without first changing it to its decimal equivalency.  Solve that for x by dividing both sides by .80 to get that x = 20

Define $g$ by $g(x)=5x-4$. If $g(x)=f^{-1}(x)-3$ and $f^{-1}(x)$ is the inverse of the function $f(x)=ax+b$, find $5a+5b$.
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

<h2>2</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given g(x)=5x-4 and g(x)=f^{-1}(x)-3

Substituting g(x) =  5x-4 into the second equation we have;

5x-4 =  f^{-1}(x)-3

f^{-1}(x) = 5x-4+3

f^{-1}(x) = 5x-1

To get f(x), let us first make y to be equal  f^{-1}(x)

y = 5x-1

expressing x in terms of y to get f(x), we have;

5x = y+1

x = y/5+1/5

replacing y with x, we will have;

y = x/5 + 1/5

F(x) = x/5 + 1/5

Comparing x/5 + 1/5 with ax+b, a = 1/5 and b = 1/5

5a + 5b = 5(1/5)+ 5(1/5)

5a+5b = 1+1

5a+5b = 2

A 13.5-meter ladder leans against a brick wall and the ladder makes a 75∘ with the wall. The distance d the ladder goes up the w
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

3.5 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Use Pythagorean theorem to find the distance (d) the distance goes up the wall = adjacent to the angle 75° that is formed with the wall.

Length of ladder = the hypothenuse = 13.5 m

Thus, we would use:

Cos75 = adjacent/hypothenuse

Cos 75 = d/13.5

Multiply both sides by 13.5

13.5*cos(75) = d

13.5*0.2588 = d

3.4938 = d

d ≈ 3.5 m (nearest tenth)
