Mathematics

Answer:

The sirt cost $7.5 before tax.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the pair of slacks cost twice as much as the shirt, we have:

slacks = 2*shirt

And the total purchase was $22.5, so we have:

slacks + shirt = 22.5

We can create a system of equations such as:

slacks = 2*shirt

slacks + shirt = 22.5

If we apply the first formula on the second we can solve for the value of the shirt, we have:

2*shirt + shirt = 22.5

3*shirt = 22.5

shirt = 22.5/3 = 7.5

So the slacks cost:

slacks = 2*7.5 = 15

What is the inverse of f(x)= cube root of x +2.
Sergeu [11.5K]
f(x) = \sqrt[3]{x + 2} \\y = \sqrt[3]{x + 2} \\y^{3} = x + 2 \\x^{3} = y + 2 \\x^{3} - 2 = y \\x^{3} - 2 = f^{-1}(x)

-4.5x-2y=-12.5 3.25x-y=-0.75<br> solve by elimination
creativ13 [48]
-4.5x-2y=-12.5 and 3.25x-y=-0.75
we first multiply the second equation by -2
(-2)*(3.25x-y=-0.75)=-6.5x+2y=-1.5
add the equation to eliminate the y
so yo get (-4.5x-6.5x)=(-12.5-1.5)
-11x=-11
x=1
now we plug in x into any equation to solve for y
-45x-2y=-12.5 and x=1
(-45*1)-2y=-12.5
-4.5-2y=-12.5
-2y=-12.5+4.5
-2y=-8
y=4
then your answer is x=1 and y=4
