First: f(2) is same as f(x=2) so all we have to do is to express x=2 in f(x)
f(2) = 3*2 + 2 = 8
Second
f^(-1) (3) is inverse function. first we solve f(x) for x.
let f(x) be equal to some variable m
m = (2x -7)/3
3m = 2x - 7
2x = 3m + 7
x = (3m + 7)/3
now we write:
f^-1(x) = (3x + 7)/3
x=3
f^-1(3) = 16/3
Third
2y + 14 = 4y - 2
we just solve for y
2y = 16
y = 8
Now we take that f(x) = y because we both write to be the functions of x
that means that First and third have same result.
Answer:
Y=77/x
Explanation:
Y varies inversely with x meaning

adding a proportionality constant gives

Now, we are told that y = 11 and x = 7; therefore, the above gives

Solving for k gives

Therefore, the function that models the inverse variation is

which is our answer!
So it is really easy to solve firstly we can see how much does the first 10 boxes make which makes around 55$ obviously. Secondly 45$ for the next 10 boxes.
So for now we can simply calculate that we have spent around 100$ which means 20 boxes. The remaining money left is 77$ so we can buy 77/3.5 = 22 only 22 boxes with that money. Hence a total of 42 boxes.
