Given the function f(x) = 6(x+2) − 3, solve for the inverse function when x = 21.
Delicious77 [7]
The invese switches x and y so basically
if
f(21)=z then f⁻¹(z)=21
therefor
f(z)=21 and f⁻¹(21)=z
basically solve for the value that makes the functino equal 21


21=6(x+2)-3
add 3 both sides
24=6(x+2)
divide by 6
4=x+2
minus 2
2=x

answer is 2

7. Given the function f(x)= (x+1)/ (2-x) answer the following:
lesantik [10]

Answer:

vrtOne example is the equation:

2x + 6 = 4x/2 + 12/2

To solve this, we need to transpose like terms to the same side.

2x - 4x/2 = 12/2 - 6

2x - 2x = 6 - 6

0 = 0

Since both sides are zero, it means that the equation has infinite number of solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

a population of 430 animals decreases at an annual rate of 21% find the multiplier for the rate of exponential decay
Inga [223]
If the population of the animals decreases by about 21% of its current population, it means that the population next year is only 1 - 0.21 or 0.79 of its current population. Thus, the multiplier for the rate of the exponential decay is 0.79.
