Answer:
97, 98
Step-by-step explanation:
a = first number
a + 1 = consecutive number
then:
a + a+1 = 195
2a + 1 = 195
2a = 195 - 1
2a = 194
a = 194/2
a = 97
a + 1 = 98
Check:
97 + 98 = 195
We actually don't need to do any computation. By definition, the inverse function
changes the role of input and output. So, if a function f maps x onto y, the inverse function maps y onto x.
You have to think like this: if the function makes a step further, the inverse function makes that same step back.
This means that the composition
is always the identity function
. In fact,

So, for every function, you have

Answer:
(0.18 x 23.50) + 23.50
Step-by-step explanation:
First, find the percentage of 23.50 (equation in the parenthesis). 18% is equivalent to 0.18. Then, you add that to 23.50. That's the total amount Sam should pay. I hope this makes sense.
