Solution:

1) Simplify \frac{1}{6}x to \frac{x}{6}
y=\frac{x}{6}-2

2) Add 2 to both sides
y+2=\frac{x}{6}
​​
3) Multiply both sides by 6
(y+2)\times 6=x

4) Regroup terms
6(y+2)=x

5) Switch sides
x=6(y+2)

Done!

The perimeter of a rectangle is 30.8 km and it’s diagonal length is 11 km. Find it’s length and width
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

Length of the rectangle is 15.0325 km and width is 0.3765 km.

Explanation:

Given:

Perimeter of a rectangle = 30.8 km

Length of diagonal of rectangle = 11 km

To find:

The length and width of rectangle=?

Solution:

Lets assume length of the rectangle = x km

And assume width of the rectangle = y km

Lets first create equation using given  perimeter

perimeter of rectangle = 2 ( length +  width )

=> 30.8 km = 2 ( x + y )  

=>x + y = \frac{30.8}{2}

=> y = 15.4 – x             ------(1)

As diagonal and two sides of rectangle forms right angle triangle whose hypoteneus is diagonal ,  

=> length^2 + width^2 = diagonal^2

=> x^2 + y^2 = 11^2

=> x^2 + y^2 = 121

On substituting value of y from (1) in above equation we get

=> x^2 + (15.4-x)^2 = 121

=>x^2 + (15.4)^2 + x^2 – 2 x 15.4 \times x   = 121

=> 2x^2-30.8x + 237.16 -121  = 0

=> 2x^2-30.8x + 116.16 = 0

Solving above quadratic equation using quadratic formula

General form of quadratic equation is  

ax^2 +bx +c = 0

And quadratic formula for getting roots of quadratic equation is  

x= \frac{ -b\pm\sqrt{(b^2-4ac)}}{2a}

As equation is 2x^2-30.8x + 116.16 = 0, in our case

a = 2 ,  b = -30.8 and c = 116.16

Calculating roots of the equation we get

x=\frac{ -(-30.8)\pm\sqrt{(-30.8)^2-4(2)( 11)} } {(2\times2)}

x=\frac{30.8\pm\sqrt{(948.64-88)}}{4}

x=\frac{30.8\pm\sqrt{860.64}}{4}

x=\frac{30.8\pm\sqrt{860.64}}{4}

x=\frac{(30.8\pm29.33)}4

x=\frac{(30.8+29.33)}{4}

x=\frac{(30.8-29.33)}{4}

=> x = 15.0325 or x = 0.3675

As generally length is longer one ,  

So x = 1.0325

From equation (1) y = 15.4 – x = 0.3765

Hence length of the rectangle is 15.0325 km and width is 0.3765 km.

Exercise 3.5. For each of the following functions determine the inverse image of T = {x ∈ R : 0 ≤ [x^2 − 25}.
masya89 [10]

a. The inverse image of f(x) is f⁻¹(x) = ∛(x/3)

b. The inverse image of g(x) is g^{-1}(x) = e^{x}

c. The inverse image of <u>h</u>(x) is h⁻¹(x) = x + 9

<h3 /><h3>The domain of T</h3>

Since T = {x ∈ R : 0 ≤ [x^2 − 25} ⇒ x² - 25 ≥ 0

⇒ x² ≥ 25

⇒ x ≥ ±5

⇒ -5 ≤ x ≤ 5.

<h3>Inverse image of f(x)</h3>

The inverse image of f(x) is f⁻¹(x) = ∛(x/3)

f : R → R defined by f(x) = 3x³

Let f(x) = y.

So, y = 3x³

Dividing through by 3, we have

y/3 = x³

Taking cube root of both sides, we have

x = ∛(y/3)

Replacing y with x we have

y = ∛(x/3)

Replacing y with f⁻¹(x), we have

So,  the inverse image of f(x) is f⁻¹(x) = ∛(x/3)

<h3>Inverse image of g(x)</h3>

The inverse image of g(x) is g^{-1}(x) = e^{x}

g : R+ → R defined by g(x) = ln(x).

Let g(x) = y

y =  ln(x)

Taking exponents of both sides, we have

e^{y} = e^{lnx} \\e^{y} = x

Replacing x with y, we have

y = e^{x}

Replacing y with g⁻¹(x), we have

So, the inverse image of g(x) is g^{-1}(x) = e^{x}

<h3>Inverse image of h(x)</h3>

The inverse image of <u>h</u>(x) is h⁻¹(x) = x + 9

h : R → R defined by h(x) = x − 9

Let y = h(x)

y = x - 9

Adding 9 to both sides, we have

y + 9 = x

Replacing x with y, we have

x + 9 = y

Replacing y with h⁻¹(x), we have

So, the inverse image of <u>h</u>(x) is h⁻¹(x) = x + 9
