John is correct because 0.5 is equal to one half and multiplying something by its half is just same as dividing something in two and half of 1.4 is 0.5
(sorry if it's too long feel free to shorten it)
Let p (x) = 4x^4-13x^2-2x
The zero of x-2 is 2
putting x = 2 in p (x), we get,
p (2) = 4×2^4-13×2^2-2×2
= 64 - 52 - 4
= 64 - 56
= 8
Therefore, remainder = 8
The GCF of 24 and 76 is 4.
Given the function f (x) = 3x, find the value of f-1 (81).
For this case, the first thing you should do is rewrite the function.
We have then:
y = 3 ^ x
From here, we clear the value of x:
log3 (y) = log3 (3 ^ x)
log3 (y) = x
Then, we rewrite the function again:
f (x) ^ - 1 = log3 (x)
Now, we evaluate the inverse function for x = 81:
f (81) ^ - 1 = log3 (81)
f (x) ^ - 1 = 4
Answer:
the value of f-1 (81) is:
f (x) ^ - 1 = 4
