Answer:

  40% decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

The decrease in area is 20-12 = 8 square feet. As a percentage of the original area, that is ...

  8/20 = 40/100 = 40% . . . . decrease in area

They are inverse functions though to be completely thorough your teacher should have also put g(f(x)) = x as well. Though I can see what your teacher is aiming for at least.

The idea is that whatever the output of g(x) is, it's plugged into f(x) and the initial input is the result. So g(x) takes a step forward and f(x) takes a step back undoing everything g(x) did. Which is exactly what an inverse operation does.

For which product or quotient is this expression the simplest form? (image attached)! please help :((
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

For simplify the work we can start to factorise all the possibles expressions:

2x + 8.

8 is multiple of 2, so it can became

2(x+4)

x^2 - 16 this is a difference of two squares, so it can be rewritten as:

(x+4)(x-4)

x^2 + 8x + 16

we have to find two numbers whose sum is 8 and whose product is 16

the two number are 4 and 4

it becames:

(x+4)(x+4)

x+ 4 can‘t be simplified

if we look at the expression, we can find that x-4 appears at the numerator so

x^2 - 16 must be at numerator

but the second factor (x+4) doesn’t appear, so has been simplified. This situation can be possible only in the D option

in fact

(x+4)(x-4)/2(x+4) * (x+4)/(x+4)(x+4)

it became

(x+4)(x-4)/2 * 1/(x+4)(x+4)

(x-4)/2(x+4)
