Determine the equation of the inverse of y =4^(2x+9)

1 answer:

6 0

Y = 1/2[(logx/log 4) - 9] is the inverse.

You can solve this by switching the x and y values and then solve. You'll need to use logarithmic functions in order to get the exponents down.

<span>x =4^(2y+9)---> take logs of both sides and move exponents
logx = (2y + 9)log 4 ---> divide by log4
logx/log4 = 2y + 9 ---> subtract 9
(logx/log4) - 9 = 2y ---> multiply by 1/2
1/2[(logx/log4) - 9] = y</span>

Answer:

graph these
y = 2x + 2
y = 2x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - y = -2
2x - y = 3

convert to y intercept form
first
2x - y = -2
-y = -2x - 2
y = 2x + 2
second
2x - y = 3
-y = -2x + 3
y = 2x - 3

you are left with
y = 2x + 2
y = 2x - 3
i cannot graph these for you, but i assume you know how, there is no solution because the lines are parallel
