Answer:

x = $\frac{(a - c)}{-2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

a/(2x-c) = -1

The first step is to multiply both sides by (2x - c)

(2x - c)a/(2x-c) = -1(2x - c)

a = -2x + c

a - c = -2x + c - c

a - c = -2x

Divide both side by -2

(a - c)/-2 = x

∴ x = $\frac{(a - c)}{-2}$

Answer:

$\frac{c-a}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

given $\frac{a}{2x-c}$ = - 1 ( cross- multiply )

- (2x - c ) = a ( distribute left side )

- 2x + c = a ( subtract c from both sides )

- 2x = a - c ( multiply both sides by - 1 )

2x = c - a ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = $\frac{c-a}{2}$

Find the equation of the inverse.

$y = {2}^{x + 5} - 6$

we have

$y=\mleft\{2\mright\}^{\mleft\{x+5\mright\}}-6$

step 1

Exchange the variables

x for y and y for x

$x=\{2\}^{\{y+5\}}-6$

step 2

Isolate the variable y

$(x+6)=2^{(y+5)}$

apply log both sides

$\begin{gathered} \log (x+6)=(y+5)\cdot\log (2) \\ y+5=\frac{\log (x+6)}{\log (2)} \\ \\ y=\frac{\log(x+6)}{\log(2)}-5 \end{gathered}$

step 3

Let

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

therefore

the inverse function is

$f^{(-1)}(x)=\frac{\log(x+6)}{\log(2)}-5$

Answer:

The expression

1/4

is given. Give a real-life application to explain this expression and then simplify it.

Given a life expression to solve this, when one divide 100 pieces of pencil by 25 which is 1/4 of the entire pencil.

1/1/4=1 x 4/1

Step-by-step explanation:

divide 1 by 1 over 4, then using cross multiply

then we have 1 multiply 4 divided by 1

Find the area of a triangle with a base length of 3 units and a height of 4 units. 3 square units 6 square units 7 square units

yan [13]

For this case we have that by definition, the area of a triangle is given by:

$A = \frac {b * h} {2}$

Where:

b: It is the base of the triangle

h: It is the height of the triangle

According to the data of the statement we have:

$b = 3 \ units\\h = 4 \ units$

Substituting in the formula we have:

$A = \frac {3 * 4} {2} = \frac {12} {2} = 6 \ units ^ 2$

So, the area of the triangle is $6 \ units ^ 2$

Answer:

$6 \ units ^ 2$
