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

How to solve 6=x+2/3

Dafna11 [192]

6 = x + 2/3

We're simply just trying to get "x" isolated.

So, we must subtract 2/3 from both sides.

6 - 2/3 = x

Simplify.

Turn 6 into an improper fraction.

6 is now 18/3 :)

So, our new problem looks like this :

18/3 - 2/3 = x

Simplify.

16/3 = x

Turn 16/3 into a mixed fraction.

How many times does 3 go into 16? 5 times! :)

So, we do this :

3 × 5 = 15

16 - 15 = 1

So, x = 5 1/3

Rationalise the denominator of 2sq3+3sq2/4sq3+sq2

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

$\frac{9+5\sqrt6}{23}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We can rewrite the fraction as

$\frac{2\sqrt{3}+3\sqrt{2}}{4\sqrt{3}+\sqrt{2}}$

In order to rationalize the denominator of such a complex fraction, we must multiply the fraction by the conjugate of the denominator. In this case, the conjugate of the denominator would be $4\sqrt{3}-\sqrt{2}$ . Multiplying both sides of the fraction by the conjugate of the denominator would result in the fraction:

$\frac{9+5\sqrt6}{23}$

Sam watched television for the past five nights for 42 mins, 23 mins, 56mins,19 mins , and 67 mins what was the median amount sa

Vlad [161]

Answer:

42 minutes is the median amount of time

Step-by-step explanation:

The Median is the middle value of data set.

If there is "odd" number of numbers, and there are n numbers, the median is:

(n/2) + 1 th number

If there is "even" number of numbers, and there are n numbers, the median is:

Average of n/2th and (n/2) + 1 th number

Here, we have 5 numbers, so the median would be:

(5/2) + 1 th number

That is

3rd number

But, we need to arrange the numbers from least to greatest. Lets write it:

19, 23, 42, 56, 67

The third number is 42, this is the median
