Let f(x) = x2 − 81. Find f−1(x).

1 answer:

3 0

F(x) = x² - 81

Finding f⁻¹(x) the inverse function

Let y = f(x) and solve for x.

y = x² - 81

y + 81 = x²

x² = y + 81

x = √(y + 81)

Recall f(x) = y, that means x = f⁻¹(y)

x = √(y + 81)

f⁻¹(y) = √(y + 81)

Therefore f⁻¹(x) = √(x + 81)

Nostrana [21]

Answer:

10 problems

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the answer because:

1) We have to solve for what 20% of 50 is since she finished 20% of her test:

20% of 50 = 10

$\frac{2}{10}$ × $\frac{50}{1}$ = $\frac{100}{10}$ = 10

Therefore, the answer is 10 problems.

Hope this helps! :D

Julie's MP3 player contains 860 songs. If 20% of the songs are rap songs and 15% of the songs are R&B songs, how many of the

docker41 [41]

Total number of songs in Julie's MP3 player = 860
Percentage of rap songs in Julie's MP3 player = 20%
Then
Number of rap songs in Julie's MP3 player = (20/100) * 860
   = 860/5
   = 172
Percentage of R&B songs in Julie's MP3 player = 15%
Then
Number of R&B songs in Julie's MP3 player = (15/100) * 860
      = 1290/10
   = 129
So
The number of other types of songs in Julie's MP3 player = 860 - (172 + 129)
   = 860 - 301
   = 559
So the number of other types of songs in Julie's MP3 player was 559.

Carl is using a pine board to make a frame for a picture . He wants the dimensions of the frame to be 2 feet by 18 inches. How l

Tems11 [23]

You could find the need of pine board by finding the perimeter of the frame. But first you need to equalize the units, because one of them is in feet and the other one is in inches.
18 inches = 18/12 feet
18 inches = 1.5 feet

perimeter = l + w + l + w
perimeter = 2 + 1.5 + 2 + 1.5
perimeter = 7

The perimeter is equal to 7 feet, therefore Carl needs 7 feet of pine board
