<span>The first number = x
The </span>second number = 2x-3
x + 2x-3 = 36
3x = 36+3
3x = 39
x = 39/3
x = 13
The first number = x = 13
The second number = 2x-3 = 2*13 - 3 = 26 - 3 = 23
VW = VC + CW
61 = z + 13 + z + 8 = 2z + 21
2z = 61 - 21 = 40
z = 40/2 = 20
z = 20.
It is now 11:50 p.m. because the clock goes back to a.m. when it hits 12
Answer:
let inverse f(x) be m:

substitute x in place of m:

Letter a is equal too -1300
and letter b =-32
hope this helps
