Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

No


Discussion:

If the functions are inverses, then f(g(x)) = x  for appropriate x. Consider x = 1.

g(1) = 1/ (5(1) + 1) = 1/6

f(g(1)) = f (1/6) =  5(1/6) + 1/ (1/6) = 5/6 + 6 = 6 5/6   <> 1

Conclusion: f(g(1)) <> 1 so the functions are not inverses


Thank you,

MrB

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Total cost=$142

cost of parts=$62

cost paid for labour=$142-$62=$80

According to question,

》cost of labour per hr=$32

which can be written as,

》cost of labour/time=$32

Use cross multiplication,

》time=cost of labour/32

Since cost of labour is 80,

Time=80/32

=2.5hrs
