Provide an example of a function that does not have an inverse function. How do you prove that it is not a function?

If f had an inverse, then its graph would be the reflection of the graph of f about the line y = x. The graph of f and its reflection about y = x are drawn below. Note that the reflected graph does not pass the vertical line test, so it is not the graph of a function.

An air traffic controller is tracking two planes. To start, Plane A is at an altitude of 3427 feet and Plane B is at an altitude

jeyben [28]

3427 + 65.75s = 5000 + 35.5s
65.75s - 35.5s = 5000 - 3427
30.25s = 1573
s = 1573 / 30.25
s = 52 seconds <== they are the same at 52 seconds

3427 + 65.75(52) = 6846
5000 + 35.5(52) = 6846

and their altitude is 6846 <===

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

In the last step, you can see that the fraction $\frac{1}{5}$ has been multiplied by its reciprocal $\frac{5}{1}$ , making it cancel out. The reciprocal has been multiplied to both sides, so all you need to do is multiply $\frac{6}{3}$ · $\frac{5}{1}$ :

6 · 5 = 30

3 · 1 = 3

So now you should have the fraction:

x = $\frac{30}{3}$

But, you can still simplify the fraction by dividing 30 by 3:

x = 10
