Answer:

x = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

The angles 3x - y and 2x + y form a straight angle and are supplementary, so

3x - y + 2x + y = 180

5x = 180 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 36

-----------------------------------------------

5y and 3x - y are vertical angles and congruent, hence

5y = 3x - y ( add y to both sides )

6y = 3x ← substitute x = 36

6y = 3 × 36 = 108 ( divide both sides by 6 )

y = 18

What is the inverse of the function f(x) = 3x – 2? f-1(x) =

Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

$\frac{x + 2}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Replace y with f(x).

$y = 3x - 2$

Swap x and y and solve for y

$x = 3y - 2$

$x + 2 = 3y$

$\frac{x + 2}{3} = y$

If f(x)=(1/8)(8^x) what is f(3)? A. 1/512 B. 1/64 C. 512 D. 64

cestrela7 [59]

Hi there!

Let's solve this problem step by step!
$f(x) = \frac{1}{8} (8 {}^{x})$

To find f(3) we must substitute x = 3 into the formula.
$f(3) = \frac{1}{8} (8 {}^{3} )$

Now we use PEMDAS (Parenthesis, exponents, multiply, divide, add, subtract) to find our answer.

Work out the exponents inside the parenthesis first.
$f(3) = \frac{1}{8} \times 512$

And finally multiply.
$f(3) = \frac{1}{8} \times \frac{512}{1} = \frac{512}{8} = 64$

Hence, the answer is D. 64.
~ Hope this helps you!

There are 418 students at a school. Han estimates that they each drink about 5 glasses of water each day.

Sauron [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) together, they all drink about 2,090 glasses of water in one day. (418 * 5 = 2,090).

b) 2,090 * 7 (7 days in 1 week) = They drink about 14,630 glasses of water in one week.

c) 14,630 * 4 (4 weeks in 1 month) = About 58,520 glasses of water in one month.

d) 1,000,000/58,520 ≈ 17. It would take all of the students about 17 months to drink 1,000,000 glasses of water.

Hope that helps!
