The answer is: f^{-1} = 4x^2-3,\quad\text{for  } x \leq 0

The inverse of a function f(x) is another function, f^{-1}(x), with the following property:

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

In other words, the inverse of a function does exactly "the opposite" of what the original function does, and so if you compute them both in sequence you return to the starting point.

Think for example to a function that doubles the input, f(x)=2x, and one that halves it: f(x)= \frac{x}{2}. Their composition is clearly the identity function f(x)=x, since you consider "twice the half of something", or "half the double of something".

In general, to invert a function y=f(x), you have to solve the expression for x, writing an expression like x = g(y). If you manage to do so, then g is the inverse of f.

In your case, you have

f(x) = y = -\frac{1}{2}\sqrt{x+3}

Multiply both sides by -2 to get

-2y = \sqrt{x+3}

Square both sides to get

4y^2 = x+3

Finally, subtract 3 from both sides to get

x = 4y^2 - 3

Since the name of the variables doesn't really have a meaning, you can say that the inverse function is

f^{-1}(x) = 4x^2 - 3

As for the domain of the inverse function, remember what we said ad the beginning: if the original function goes from set A (domain) to set B (codomain), then the inverse function goes from set B (domain) to set A (codomain). This means that the inverse function is defined on an element in B if and only if that element belongs to the range of the original function, i.e. the set of the elements of the codomain b \in B such that there exists a \in A : f(a)=b. So, we need the range of f(x).

We know that the range of g(x)=\sqrt{x} is [0,\infty). When you transform it to g(x)=\sqrt{x+3} you simply translate the graph horizontally, so the range doesn't change. But when you multiply the function times -\frac{1}{2} you affect both extrema of the range, turning it into (-\infty,0], which you can simply write as x \leq 0

John bought 3 pineapples and 2 watermelons for $8.50. Sue bought 2 pineapples and 4 watermelons for $13.00. Write and show a sys
AleksAgata [21]
As per your question, total cost of watermelon should end with either 5(for odd quantity) or 0(for even quantity).

If the quantity of watermelon is odd, then the total cost value of pineapple should end with 3 and this is not possible when the cost of pineapple is ₹7.

So let's come to conclusion that the count(quantity) of watermelon should be any one of 0, 2, 4, 6.

If count of watermelon is 6: It will cost ₹30 and for remaining ₹8, we can buy 1 pineapple but still ₹1 will not be utilised. So 1 pineapple is not possible

If count of watermelon is 4: It will cost ₹20 and for remaining ₹18, we can buy 2 pineapple with ₹4 not being utilised. So 2 pineapple is also not possible.

If count of watermelon is 2: It will cost ₹10 and for remaining ₹28, we can buy 4 pineapple with all amount being utilised. We can buy 4 pineapple along with with 2 watermelon for ₹38.

If count of watermelon is 0: It will cost you ₹0 and for remaining ₹38, we can buy 5 pineapple with ₹3 being not utilised. So 5 pineapple is also not possible.

So the answer is 4 pineapple.

Is diameter and radius the same thing
fredd [130]

radius* 2=diameter so no diameter and radius aren't the same thing because radius is half the distance across the circle and diameter is the full distance across the circle.
