Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The function f(x) does not pass the horizontal line test, so has no inverse, except on a restricted domain. The question does not include any restriction on the domain, so the functions are not inverses of each other.

If we assume your functions are ...

$f(x)=5x^2+3\\\\g(x)=\sqrt{\dfrac{x-3}{5}}$

Then the value of g(f(x)) is ...

$g(f(x))=\sqrt{\dfrac{(5x^2+3)-3}{5}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{5x^2}{5}}=\sqrt{x^2}$

This is only equal to x when x ≥ 0. For x < 0, g(f(x)) ≠ x, so the functions are not inverses.

You can see from the graph that the function g(x) is not the reflection of f(x) across the line y=x. If the functions were inverses, each would be a reflection of the other.

Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

Plugging in g(x) into f(x), you don't get x. g(x) would need to be = $\sqrt{x\frac{-3}{5} }$

Question 7

$\huge\underline{\red{A}\blue{n}\pink{s}\purple{w}\orange{e}\green{r} -}$

Given - a cone with volume 769?3 ft³ , having a height of 15 ft

To calculate - radius of the cone

We know that ,

$\bold{Volume \: of \: cone = \frac{1}{3}\pi \: r {}^{2} h }\\$

substituting the values in the formula stated above ,

$\bold{769.3 = \frac{1}{3} \times 3.14 \times r {}^{2} \times 15} \\ \\\bold{\implies r {}^{2} = \frac{769.3 \times 3}{3.14 \times 15} } \\ \\\bold{\implies r {}^{2} = \cancel\frac{2307.9}{47.1}} \\ \\\bold{ \implies \: r {}^{2} = 49} \\ \\ \bold{\implies \: r = 7 \: ft}$
