Answer: 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the smaller number be y.

Since the difference of two numbers is 5,then the larger number will be: y+5

The sum of three times the larger number and twice the smaller number is 30. This can be written as:

3(y+5) + 2y = 30

3y + 15 + 2y = 30

5y + 15 = 30

5y = 30 - 15

5y = 15

y = 15/5

y = 3

The smaller number is 3

Select the correct answer.
vovangra [49]

Step-by-step explanation:

let f(x) be y

∴ y = 10x/9 +11

(y - 11 )× 9/ 10 = x

Interchange x->y and y->x

(x - 11)×9/10 = y

here y is your f⁻¹(x)

∴ f⁻¹(x) = (x - 11 )× 9/10

or, f⁻¹(x) = 9x/10 - 99/10

Option (D) is correct
