A. Consumer price index measures the change in prices of specific good and services over time. The consumer price index (CPI) is an estimate of prices that are collected periodically that represent the item/goods. CPI is based on the overall cost of a fixed basket of goods a typical costumer would buy rather then the same basket in the year.

State if the given functions are inverses NO LINKS!!!! Part 1

Dafna11 [192]

Step-by-step explanation:

h(x)=(-3x-15)/5

let y=(-3x-15)/5

interchanging role of x &y

x=(-3y-15)/5

5x+15=-3y

y=-(5x+15)/3

h-1(x)=-(5x+15)/3

not

equal to f(x)=(-3x-6)/4

Given function are not function of each other .

g(x)=2/3x-2/3

let

y=2/3(x-1)

interchanging role of x &y

x=2/3(y-1)

3/2x+1=y

g-1(x)=3/2x+1

not equal to f(x)=½x+1

Given function are not function of each other .

Consider the equality xy k. Write the following inverse proportion: y is inversely proportional to x. When y = 12, x=5.

skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

$y=\dfrac {60} {x}$ or $xy=60$ (depending on your teacher's format preference)

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Proportionality background</h3>

Proportionality is sometimes called "variation". (ex. " 'y' varies inversely as 'x' ")

There are two main types of proportionality/variation:

Direct
Inverse.

Every proportionality, regardless of whether it is direct or inverse, will have a constant of proportionality (I'm going to call it "k").

Below are several different examples of both types of proportionality, and how they might be stated in words:

$y=kx$ y is directly proportional to x
$y=kx^2$ y is directly proportional to x squared
$y=kx^3$ y is directly proportional to x cubed
$y=k\sqrt{x}}$ y is directly proportional to the square root of x
$y=\dfrac {k} {x}$ y is inversely proportional to x
$y=\dfrac {k} {x^2}$ y is inversely proportional to x squared

From these examples, we see that two things:

things that are directly proportional -- the thing is multiplied to the constant of proportionality "k"
things that are inversely proportional -- the thing is divided from the constant of proportionality "k".

<h3>Looking at our question</h3>

In our question, y is inversely proportional to x, so the equation we're looking at is the following $y=\dfrac {k} {x}$ .

It isn't yet clear what the constant of proportionality "k" is for this situation, but we are given enough information to solve for it: "When y=12, x=5."

We can substitute this known relationship pair, and find the "k" that relates this pair of numbers:

<h3>Solving for k, and finding the general equation</h3>

General Inverse variation equation...

$y=\dfrac {k} {x}$

Substituting known values...

$(12)=\dfrac {k} {(5)}$

Multiplying both sides by 5...

$(12)*5= \left ( \dfrac {k} {5} \right ) *5$

Simplifying/arithmetic...

$60=k$

So, for our situation, k=60. So the inverse proportionality relationship equation for this situation is $y=\dfrac {60} {x}$ .

The way your question is phrased, they may prefer the form: $xy=60$

Find the exact value of Cos(-pi/12)

Inga [223]

You did ask for the EXACT value, which no one has posted yet. The exact value is √(2 + √3)/2. To three decimal places, that is .966. As for how I got that, I started with a 30-60-90 triangle and extended the longer side by the length of the hypotenuse to get a 15-75-90 triangle, then used Pythagoragus. For some reason, though, most students have an easier time using a half-angle formula, so feel free to do it that way. * * * * OK, sorry, I see Awesome Sauce also gives an exact value. It is also correct, just looks a little different. * * * * From your comment in Additional Details, it appears you want to use the angle difference relation: cos(π/12) = cos(π/4 - π/6). That works also, but you need to get the formula right, which is: cos(a - b) = cos a * cos b + sin a * sin b For cos (45 - 30), this gives cos 45 * cos 30 + sin 45 * sin 30 = √2/2 * √3/2 + √2/2 * 1/2 = √2/4(√3 + 1). This is yet another expression for the same exact value.
