Answer:
- x = log(y/4)/log(1.0256)
- your answer for y=12 is correct
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is asking you to solve ...
y = f(x)
for x. (In other words, find the inverse function.)
You already did this using a constant for y. Do the same thing with y instead of the constant.
y = 4(1.0256^x)
y/4 = 1.0256^x . . . . . . . divide by 4
log(y/4) = x·log(1.0256) . . . . . take logs
log(y/4)/log(1.0256) = x . . . . . divide by the coefficient of x
Now, you have a model for x in terms of y, which is what the question is asking for.
x = log(y/4)/log(1.0256) . . . . . . . exact expression
When y=12, this is ...
x = log(12/4)/log(1.0256) ≈ 43.46 . . . . weeks
_____
This is a linear equation in log(y), so can be written as such:
x = 91.0912·log(y) -54.8424 . . . . . approximate expression
Yessss that should be correct
Answer:
f^-1(x) = x - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the inverse of a function in terms of x and y, you would sway x and y in the function. We can rewrite f(x) = x + 2 as y = x + 2, since f(x) is basically y in a function. The inverse of y = x + 2 would be x = y + 2. Now, solve for y.
x = y + 2
-2 both sides.
x - 2 = y
y = x - 2
The inverse of y = x + 2 would be y = x - 2, so the inverse of f(x) = x + 2 would be f^-1(x) = x - 2 (f^-1(x) means the inverse of f(x)).
f^-1(x) = x - 2
I hope you find this helpful. :)

Draw an imaginary line from the vertex of angle x to the center of the circle.
This divides the 4-sided polygon into two right triangles. For example, the upper right triangle has an acute angle whose measure is 135 degrees / 2, or 67.5 degrees, and the another acute angle whose measure is x/2.
x/2 and 67.5 degrees are complementary angles, so x/2 + 67.5 deg = 90 deg. Thus, x/2 = 22.5 deg, and so x = 45 deg. (answer)
