Answer:

The value of f^{-1}(12) is \frac{7}{-9} .

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is <em>x f(x) = 3x-7 .</em>

f(x)=3-\frac{7}{x}

The inverse of the function is found by adjusting the equation such that, expressing x in terms of f(x).

\frac{7}{x} = 3 - f(x)

x = \frac{7}{3-f(x)}

now, <em>x = f^{-1}(x) and f(x) be x.</em>

Thus, f^{-1}(x) = \frac{7}{3-x}

Now, inserting value of x as 12,

<em>f^{-1}(12) = \frac{7}{3-(12)}</em>

<em>f^{-1}(12) = \frac{7}{-9}</em>

Answer:

f^-1(12)=-7/9

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the inverse of a function, say f(x), follow these steps

  • Replace f(x) with y. this will make further solving easier.
  • Replace x with y and y with x.
  • Solve for y with the above equation we got in step 2.
  • Replace y with f^{-1}(x)

So the given equation is xf(x)=3x-7

⇒xy=3x-7

⇒yx=3y-7

⇒3y-xy=7

⇒y(3-x)=7

⇒y=\frac{7}{3-x}

Therefore, f^{-1}(x)=\frac{7}{3-x}

Now substitute x=12 in above equation,

f^{-1}(12)=\frac{7}{3-12} =-\frac{7}{9}

A walking path across a park is represented by the equation y=-3x - 3. A
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

y = (1/3)x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The general structure form of a line in slope-intercept form is:

y = mx + b

In this form, "m" represents the slope and "b" represents the y-intercept.

The slope of a perpendicular line is the opposite-signed, reciprocal of the original line's slope. Therefore, if the slope of the original line is m = -3, the new slope is m = 1/3.

The y-intercept can be found by plugging the new slope and the values from the point (-3, 6) into the slope-intercept form equation.

m = 1/3

x = -3

y = 6

y = mx + b                                  <----- Slope-intercept form

6 = (-3)(1/3) + b                           <----- Insert values

6 = -1 + b                                    <----- Multiply -3 and 1/3

7 = b                                           <----- Add 1 to both sides

Now, that you have the slope and y-intercept, you can construct the equation of the perpendicular line.

y = (1/3)x + 7

If a hose is filling a swimming pool at a rate of 20 liters per minute, how long will it take to fill the 3,600-gallon pool?
Cloud [144]

Answer: the correct answer is 11 hours, 21 seconds and 3738 fractions of a second.

Step-by-step explanation:

An American gallon has 3.78541 liters.

3,600 gallons are 13,627.46 liters since 3,600 gallons * 3.78541 liters per gallon= 13,627.46 liters

We will need 681.3738 minutes to fill the pool since 13,627.46 liters divided by 20 liters per minute = 681.3738 minutes

681.3738 minutes is 11 hours and 21.3738 seconds since 11*60 minutes + 21.3738 minutes = 660 minutes + 21.3738 seconds = 681.3738 or 681.3738 divided by 60 minutes ( 1 hour ) is 11 hours and 21.3738 seconds.
