f(x) = -5x - 15

Let y = f(x)

y = -5x - 15

Switch the x and y places, and solve for y:

x = -5y - 15

-5y = x + 15

y = (x + 15)/-5

y = -(x/5) - 3

So the inverse of : f(x) = -5x - 15 is

-x/5 - 3

The florida manatee population is 3,000 and is decreasing by 11% each year. Write a function for this situation.

True [87]

Answer:

$P=3000(0.89)^t$

Step-by-step explanation:

It was given that, florida manatee population is 3,000 and is decreasing by 11% each year.

We want to write a function for this situation.

Since the population is decreasing annually, it is modelled by:

$P=P_0(1-r\%)^t$

We substitute the give initial population and rate of decrease to get:

$P=3000(1-0.11)^t$

This simplifies to:

$P=3000(0.89)^t$

If r=8 and h=4, what is the volume of the cylinder shown above

Inessa05 [86]

Lets get started :)

The Volume formula of a Cylinder is
V = $\pi$ r²h
(r = radius, h = height)

The radius given is 8 and the height is 4, We can plug in the known values

V = $\pi$ (8)²(4)
= $\pi$ 256
= 256 $\pi$ units³ (You can leave the answer in this form)
≈ 804.2 units³ (approximately)

Units³ because it is a volume (3D shape)
