Answer:
y = lnx/ln12
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the function y = 12^x, to find the inverse of the function, we news to write x as a function of y as shown:
Given y = 12^x
Taking ln of both sides
ln y = ln 12^x
ln y = xln12
Divide both sides by ln12
lny/ln12 = xln12/ln12
x = lny/ln12
x = ln(y-12)
Replacing y with x and x with y
The inverse of the function will be:
y = lnx/ln12
Answer:
1 9/16 square feet or 1.5625 square feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of a rectangle is Length x Width
First convert 2 1/2 into a number that is just a fraction.
2 = 4/2 so 4/2 + 1/2 = 5/2
Now you can multiply the two fractions to find the area.
area = 5 5 25
-- x -- = -----
8 2 16
To simplify this, you know 16/16 = 1 so subtract 16 from the numerator which leaves 9/16
Your answer will be 1 and 9/16
