Answer:

x = the length per pipe

You have 3 as the coefficient to x because one of the pipes is three times larger than the other.

3x + x = 136

4x = 136

Divide by 4

4 ÷ 4 = 1

136 ÷ 4 = 34

x = 34

Now Substitute

3(34) + 34 = 136

102 + 34 = 136

Final Answer

34 inches (in)

Find the inverse. <br> f(x)= 5x-15
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

y=\frac{x}{5}+3

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Replace f(x) to x and replace x with y.

     x=5y-15

2. Then, add 15 to both sides

x+15=5y-15+15

5y=x+15

3. Divide both sides by 5

\frac{5y}{5}=\frac{x}{5}+\frac{15}{5}

y=\frac{x}{5}+3

4. Enjoy your answer.
