Because Jon is walking at a constant rate, the equation will be simple division. Because Jon walks 3 miles per hour, if you divide 12 miles by 3 miles per hour (12 mi / 3 mph), the miles in the equation cancel and you are left with 12 / 3 hours. 12 / 3 = 4, so Jon is hiking for 4 hours.

Which is the inverse of the function a(d)=5d-3? And use the definition of inverse functions to prove a(d) and a-1(d) are inverse

Drupady [299]

Answer:

$a'(d) = \frac{d}{5} + \frac{3}{5}$

$a(a'(d)) = a'(a(d)) = d$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$a(d) = 5d - 3$

Solving (a): Write as inverse function

$a(d) = 5d - 3$

Represent a(d) as y

$y = 5d - 3$

Swap positions of d and y

$d = 5y - 3$

Make y the subject

$5y = d + 3$

$y = \frac{d}{5} + \frac{3}{5}$

Replace y with a'(d)

$a'(d) = \frac{d}{5} + \frac{3}{5}$

Prove that a(d) and a'(d) are inverse functions

$a'(d) = \frac{d}{5} + \frac{3}{5}$ and $a(d) = 5d - 3$

To do this, we prove that:

$a(a'(d)) = a'(a(d)) = d$

Solving for $a(a'(d))$

$a(a'(d)) = a(\frac{d}{5} + \frac{3}{5})$

Substitute $\frac{d}{5} + \frac{3}{5}$ for d in $a(d) = 5d - 3$

$a(a'(d)) = 5(\frac{d}{5} + \frac{3}{5}) - 3$

$a(a'(d)) = \frac{5d}{5} + \frac{15}{5} - 3$

$a(a'(d)) = d + 3 - 3$

$a(a'(d)) = d$

Solving for: $a'(a(d))$

$a'(a(d)) = a'(5d - 3)$

Substitute 5d - 3 for d in $a'(d) = \frac{d}{5} + \frac{3}{5}$

$a'(a(d)) = \frac{5d - 3}{5} + \frac{3}{5}$

Add fractions

$a'(a(d)) = \frac{5d - 3+3}{5}$

$a'(a(d)) = \frac{5d}{5}$

$a'(a(d)) = d$

Hence:

$a(a'(d)) = a'(a(d)) = d$
