Ratio of height of the man to the length of the shadow = 6:9 = 2:3
Ratio of height of the tree to the length of its shadow = x:25 = 2:3
x/25 = 2/3
x = (25 x 2)/3 = 50/3 = 16.67

Therefore the approximate height of the tree to the nearest foot is 17 feet.

The question ask to calculate and find the approximate height of the tree to the nearest foot if it has cast a shadow of 25feet and the man also cast a shadow near it at a height of 6 foot. So base on that fact, I came up with an answer of approximately 17 feet. I hope you are satisfied with my answer

Which function is f(x) equal to f^-1(x)?
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

c. f(x) x+1/x-1

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question, we need to check each answer one by one until we find the right one.  

y = (x+6)/(x-6)  

switch x and y  

x = (y+6)/(y-6)  

solve for y  

x(y-6) = y+6  

xy - 6x = y+6  

y(x-1) = 6x+6  

y = (6x+6) /(x-1) = 6(x+1)/(x-1)  

f^-1(x) = 6(x+1)/(x-1)  

y = (x+2)/(x-2)  

switch x and y  

x = (y+2)/(y-2)  

solve for y  

x(y-2) = y+2  

xy -2x = y+2  

y(x-1) = 2x+2  

y = (2x+2)/(x-1)  

f^-1(x) = 2(x+1)/(x-1)  

y = (x+1)/(x-1) ------ correct one  

switch x and y  

x = (y+1)/(y-1)  

solve for y  

x(y-1) = y+1  

xy - x = y+1  

y(x-1) = x+1  

y = (x+1)/(x-1)  

f^-1(x) = (x+1)/(x-1)  

f(x) = f^-1(x)
