Answer:
Find the answers in the explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
The given function is
f(x)=475-15x
A.) To find f^-1 and explain what it represents in this situacions, let f(x) = y. That is,
Y = 475 - 15x
Interchange y and x and make y the subject of formula
X = 475 - 15y
-15y = x - 475
Y = 475/15 - x/15
Y = (475 - x) / 15
Therefore,
f^-1(x) = (475 - x) / 15
If the function depreciates the smartphone, then, the inverse function will appreciate it.
When will the deprecated value of smart phone be less than $100.00
Substitute 100 for f(x) and find x
100 = 475 - 15x
-15x = 100 - 475
-15x = - 375
X = 375/15
X = 25
Therefore, the deprecated value of smart phone be less than $100.00 in the next 26 months.
what does x represent in f^-1(x) =30?
X represent the number of months for the smartphone appreciations
What is the value of x?
Substitute the inverse function for 30 and make x the subject of formula in the equation
f^-1(x) = (475 - x) / 15
30 = (475 - x) / 15
Cross multiply
450 = 475 - x
X = 475 - 450
X = 25 months
Graph f(x) and f^-1 (x) on the same coordinate
Vanessa can make 5 portions
1/2r+2(3/4r-1)=1/4r+6
2r-2=1/4r+6
2r=1/4r+8
7/4r=8
7r=32
r=32/7
The answer for you problem is 6
