To solve this problem, we should use a system of equations. In this example, we can construct two equations from the given equation letting the variable r represent the number of raspberries Diane has and b represent the number of blackberries Diane has.

r + b = 46 (the number of raspberries plus the number of blackberries is 46, the total number of berries)

b + 20 = r (there are 20 more raspberries than blackberries)

Our two equations are above. Because our second equation is already r in terms of b, we can substitute this value for r into our first equation, as modeled below:

r + b = 46

(b + 20) + b = 46

Now, to simplify, we should combine like terms on the left side of the equation.

2b + 20 = 46

Next, we should subtract 20 from both sides of the equation to get the variable term alone on the left side of the equation.

2b = 26

Finally, we should divide both sides of the equation by 2, in order to get rid of the coefficient on the variable b.

b = 13

Therefore, Diane has 13 blackberries (if you substitute in this value into the first equation, you can figure out that there are 33 raspberries in the bowl).

Hope this helps!

Jillian's puppy weighed 16 pounds at the age of 2 months. It weighed 60 pounds at the age of 8 months. What is the percent chang
mel-nik [20]

Answer:the percent change in the puppy's weight= 275%

Step-by-step explanation:

Jillian's puppy Weight  at 2 months  =16 pounds

Jillian's puppy Weight  at 8 months  =60 pounds

percent change in the puppy's weight= change in weight / Old weight  x 100

(60 pounds -16pounds ) / 16  x 100

44/16 x 100  = 275%

GIven the function f(x) = 3x +1: (A) Find the inverse of f^-1(x). (B) Find f^-1(6)
Pani-rosa [81]

The inverse function is equal to f-1(x) = (x - 1)/3 and the value at f-1(6) is equal to 5/3.

To find the inverse, you need to switch the f(x) and x in the equation. Then you can solve for the new f(x). The result will be the inverse (f-1)

f(x) = 3x + 1 ----> Switch f(x) and x

x = 3f(x) + 1 ----> Subtract 1

x - 1 = 3f(x) ----> Divide by 3.

f-1(x) = (x - 1)/3

Now that we have the inverse, we can plug 6 in to get the value at f-1(6).

f-1(x) = (x - 1)/3

f-1(6) = (6 - 1)/3

f-1(6) = 5/3
