Mathematics

f^-1(x) = 2x + 10 → d

let y = \frac{1}{2} x - 5

rearrange making x the subject

\frac{1}{2} x - 5 = y

add 5 to both sides

\frac{1}{2} x = y + 5

multiply both sides by 2

x = 2y + 10 ⇒ f^-1(x) = 2x + 10

Answer:

D. -2x - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Simplify 1/3(6x+15) to 6x+15/3

-6x+15/3 - 3

2) Factor out the common term 3.

-3(2x+5)/3 - 3

3) Cancel 3.

-(2x+5)-3

4) Remove parentheses.

-2x-5-3

5) Collect like terms.

-2x+(-5-3)

6) Simplify

-2x-8

Fynjy0 [20]

Commission = 10%

If the car was sold for $2000

commission = 10% of $2000

commission = 0.1 x $2000

commission = $200

A food packet is dropped from a helicopter and is modeled by the function f(x) = −15x2 + 6000. The graph below shows the height
melisa1 [442]

General Idea:

Domain of a function means the values of x which will give a DEFINED output for the function.

Applying the concept:

Given that the x represent the time in seconds, f(x) represent the height of food packet.

Time cannot be a negative value, so

x\geq 0

The height of the food packet cannot be a negative value, so

f(x)\geq 0

We need to replace -15x^2+6000 for f(x) in the above inequality to find the domain.

-15x^2+6000\geq 0 \; \;  [Divide \; by\; -15\; on\; both\; sides]\\ \\ \frac{-15x^2}{-15} +\frac{6000}{-15} \leq \frac{0}{-15} \\ \\ x^2-400\leq 0\;[Factoring\;on\;left\;side]\\ \\ (x+200)(x-200)\leq 0

The possible solutions of the above inequality are given by the intervals (-\infty , -2], [-2,2], [2,\infty ). We need to pick test point from each possible solution interval and check whether that test point make the inequality (x+200)(x-200)\leq 0 true. Only the test point from the solution interval [-200, 200] make the inequality true.

The values of x which will make the above inequality TRUE is -200\leq x\leq 200

But we already know x should be positive, because time cannot be negative.

Conclusion:

Domain of the given function is 0\leq x\leq 200
