Robert's car uses 5 gallons of gas to cover 170 miles. At this rate, how many gallons will he need for a 255-mile trip?

. Find the inverse of the function below on the given interval and write it in the form yequalsf Superscript negative 1 Baseline

Elena L [17]

Answer:

The inverse of the function is $f^{-1}(x)=\frac{x-5}{3}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

The function provided is:

$f (x)=3x+5$

Let $f(x)=y$ .

Then the value of x is:

$y=3x+5\\\\3x=y-5\\\\x=\frac{y-5}{3}$

For the inverse of the function, $x\rightarrow y$ .

⇒ $f^{-1}(x)=\frac{x-5}{3}$

Compute the value of $f[f^{-1}(x)]$ as follows:

$f[f^{-1}(x)]=f[\frac{x-5}{3}]$

$=3[\frac{x-5}{3}]+5\\\\=x-5+5\\\\=x$

Hence proved that $f[f^{-1}(x)]=x$ .

Compute the value of $f^{-1}[f(x)]$ as follows:

$f^{-1}[f(x)]=f^{-1}[3x+5]$

$=\frac{(3x+5)-5}{3}\\\\=\frac{3x+5-5}{3}\\\\=x$

Hence proved that $f^{-1}[f(x)]=x$ .

$\bold{\huge{\underline{ Solution\: 2 }}}$

The name of the circle is IJKL
The name of central Angle
$\sf{\underline{= {\angle} IHJ }}$
The name of the secant = KL

${\bigstar}$ Circle :- It is a round figures, which has no end points.

${\bigstar}$ Central angle :- It the angle ,which lie in the middle of the circle.

Here, H is the mid point of the circle .So, Angle IHJ is the central angle.

${\bigstar}$ Secant :- A line drawn in circle in such a way that it intersect the circle from two distinct points. Then, It is called secant .

Here, KL is the line which acts as a secant because it intersect the circle from point K and point L.

$\bold{\huge{\underline{ Solution\: 3 }}}$

Semicircle = FGH and FIH
Minor Arc :- FG or GH
Major Arc :- FHG or GFH

${\bigstar}$ Semicircle :- Semicircle is nothing but the half of the circle.

Here, In second diagram 

FGH and FIH are acting as two semicircles which simulatineously forming one circle.

${\bigstar}$ Minor Arc :- Minor Arc is nothing but the smaller arc of the circle and it is always smaller than the half of the circle that is semicircle.

Here, 

FG or GH are the minor arc of the given circle.

${\bigstar}$ Major Arc :- Major Arc is nothing but the largest arc of the circle and it is always larger than the half of the circle that is semicircle.

Here, 

FHG or GFH is the major arc as it is larger than the semicircle of the given circle .

A circle has an area of 78.5 square inches what is the radius of the circle

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of circle = 78.5 in²

πr² = 78.5

3.14*r² = 78.5

$r^{2}=\frac{78.5}{3.14}\\\\=\frac{78.5*100}{3.14*100}\\\\=\frac{7850}{314}\\\\r^{2}=25\\r=\sqrt{25}=\sqrt{5*5}\\\\$

r = 5 in
