Answer:
All you have to do is insert the first value where the x is, and the second value where the y is.
y = 3x + 5
11 = 3(2) + 5
11 = 6 + 5
11 = 11
So, this is right.
Now, let's check (3,13)
y = 3x + 5
13 = 3(3) + 5
13 = 9 + 5
13 = 14
This is NOT true. So, your answer is: Only (2,11)
Hope this helps!
Yes choice B) 1/5 is correct. You are using the correct formula and steps. Nice work.
Here's another way to look at it:
When you visually plot the inverse, you reflect everything over the line y = x. What happens is that every (x,y) point swaps coordinates. So if (1,2) is on g(x), then (2,1) is on the inverse, and vice versa. Swapping the x and y values will swap the nature of the tangent slope.
For any tangent on g(x), its slope is m = (dy)/(dx)
The corresponding slope on the inverse will be n = (dx)/(dy). All that's happened here is that the numerator and denominator flipped. Again because x and y have swapped places. If you wanted, you can picture the xy axis where the vertical axis is the x axis and the horizontal axis is the y axis. That's effectively what is going on here.
So before you found that g'(1) = 5 meaning that m = 5/1 on g(x) at the point (1,2)
So n = 1/m = 1/5 for the point (2,1) on the inverse g function.
Answer:
18 1/3. You add 18 1/3 to cancel out that number.
Step-by-step explanation:
To compare their speed (rate), we need to have the same time or same distance to use as a reference.
Matt ran 50 meters per 10 seconds. Molly ran 30 meters per 5 seconds. If she ran for 5 more seconds, she would have gone 30 more meters, for 30 meters per 10 seconds. Thus, Molly went faster.
Alternately, you could calculate their speeds in meters per (one) second and compare. 50 meters per 10 seconds is 5 meters per second, and 30 meters per 5 seconds is 6 meters per second.
