On Monday he reads 2 pages, on Tuesday he reads 6 pages (triple of 2: 2 + 2 + 2 = 6), on Wednesday he reads 18 pages (triple of 6: 6 + 6+ 6 = 18), on Thursday he reads 54 pages (triple of 18: 18 + 18 + 18 = 54).
Answer:
40
Step-by-step explanation:
Any solution x will mod 23 will also have x+23n as a solution, for some integer n. Since 900/23 = 39 3/23, we know there are 39 or 40 three-digit integers of this form.
As it happens, 100 is the smallest 3-digit solution. So, there are 40 three-digit numbers that are of the form 100 +23n, hence 40 solutions to the equation.
_____
The equation reduces, mod 23, to ...
10x = 11
Its solutions are x = 23n +8.
Answer: 2,511 km
Step-by-step explanation:
5828.6*4.75 = 2,510.85 rounded to 2,511
Larger triangle’s base length
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a^2 + 3^2 = 8^2
a^2 = 8^2 - (3^2)
sqrt(a^2) = sqrt(55)
a = sqrt(55)
__________________
Smaller triangle’s base length:
The same formula applies.
a^2 + 3^2 = 5^2
a^2 = 5^2 - (3^2)
sqrt(a^2) = sqrt(16)
a = 4
____________
The finale!
Add the two side lengths of a, which is sqrt(55) + 4 (exact answer)
or... 11.416 (unrounded to thousandths place)
Good luck to you!
Answer: The inverse of the linear function f(x)=2x+1 is f^(-1) (x) = (1/2)x-1/2
Solution
f(x)=2x+1
y=f(x)
y=2x+1
Isolating x: Subtracting 1 both sides of the equation:
y-1=2x+1-1
y-1=2x
Multiplying both sides of the equation by 1/2:
(1/2)(y-1)=(1/2)2x
(1/2)y-1/2=x
x=(1/2)y-1/2
Changing "x" by "f^(-1) (x)" and "y" by "x":
f^(-1) (x) = (1/2)x-1/2
