Hey there!!
Let's take the number as x and y
Given,
The sum of x and y = 12
One number is 2 more than the other
Let's take y = x + 2
Equations
x + y = 12
As we know y = x + 2 , plug the value in
x + x + 2 = 12
2x + 2 = 12
Subtract 2 on both sides
2x = 10
Divide by 5 on both sides
x = 5
y = 2 + x
y = 7
The numbers are 5 and 7
Hope my answer helps!
A property of inverse functions is that if f(x) = a, g(a) = x
F(x) = (5x+1)/x
G(x) = x/(5x+1)
Plug in x = 3.
F(3) = 16/3
G(16/3) = 16/83. Since it doesn’t equal 3, it’s not an inverse function
