Answer:
<u>Given function</u>
- h(x) = 2x - 1
#15 Find the inverse of h(x)
<u>Substitute x with y and h(x) with x and solve for y:</u>
- x = 2y - 1
- 2y = x + 1
- y = 1/2x + 1/2
<u>The inverse is:</u>
- h⁻¹(x) = 1/2x + 1/2
#16 The graph with both lines is attached.
The x- and y-intercepts of both functions have reversed values.
#17 Table of the inverse function will contain same numbers with swapped domain and range.
<u>Initial look is like this:</u>
- <u>x | -3 | -2 | -1 | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3</u>
- h⁻¹(x) | -1 | | 0 | | 1 | | 2
<u>The rest of the table is filled in by finding the values:</u>
- <u>x | -3 | -2 | -1 | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3</u>
- h⁻¹(x) | -1 | -0.5 | 0 | 0.5 | 1 | 1.5 | 2
Answer:
a) 41
b) -31
c) 25/3
Step-by-step explanation:
The instructions explain what a function is pretty clearly.
Basically, whatever is in the parentheses next to the , you plug in to the expression that is the function.
ex:
Okay, onto the problems:
a)
First, plug in 14, since that is given:
and solve.
So, 41 is the answer to a.
b) Do the same thing you did in problem a. Plug in the number inside the parentheses and solve.
-31 is the answer to b.
c) For this problem, you have to do a bit of algebra.
First, take the base function f(x):
Then, set f(x) = 24:
and solve by isolating x.
25/3 is the answer to c.
A simple diagram will show you the intersection of altitudes is in the 2nd quadrant. It must have x-coordinate -2, as the altitude to the "base" y=10 must be the vertical line through (-2, 4).
The appropriate choice is ...
... C: (-2, 12)
