Answer:
-0.16
Step-by-step explanation:
The 'a' value can be found by looking at the difference between the y-value of a point 1 unit from the vertex, and the y-value of the vertex.
Here, that is a negative fraction of a unit. If we assume the value is a rational number that can be accurately determined from this graph, then we can find it by looking for a point where the graph crosses a grid intersection. It looks like such grid points are (-7, 0) and (3, 0). The vertex is apparently (-2, 4), so the vertex form of the equation is ...
y = a(x +2)^2 +4
Using the point (3, 0), we have ...
0 = a(3 +2)^2 +4 . . . . . fill in the values of x and y
-4 = 25a . . . . . . . . . . subtract 4; next, divide by 25
a = -4/25 = -0.16
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Rearrange each function to solve for x.
Switch x and y,
The resulting equation is the inverse function.
A:
f(x) = y = 5+x
x = y-5
y = x-5
f⁻¹(x) = x-5
g(x) = 5-x ≠ f⁻¹(x)
g(x) is not the inverse of f(x).
:::::
B:
f(x) = y = 2x-9
x = (y+9)/2
y = (x+9)/2
f⁻¹(x) = (x+9)/2
g(x) = (x+9)/2 = f⁻¹(x)
g(x) is the inverse of f(x).
:::::
C:
f(x) = y = 2/x - 6
x = 2/(y+6)
y = 2/(x+6)
f⁻¹(x) = 2/(x+6)
g(x) = (x+6)/2 ≠ f⁻¹(x)
:::::
D:
f(x) = y = x/3 + 4
x = 3y - 12
y = 3x - 12
f⁻¹(x) = 3x - 12
g(x) = 3x - 4 ≠ f⁻¹(x)
g(x) is not the inverse of f(x).
Answer:
f(x) = -5x - 4
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to get the inverse of the following function:
f^-1(x) = (-1/5)x - 4/5
To do that, we have to replace x with f(x) and f^-1(x) with x, as follows:
x = (-1/5)f(x) - 4/5
And then solve for f(x), the inverse of f^-1(x).
x + 4/5 = (-1/5)f(x)
f(x) = -5x + (-5)4/5
f(x) = -5x - 4
To check our result we compute a pair (x, f(x))
x f(x)
1 -5*1 - 4 = -9
which has to be equivalent to (-9, 1) in the original function
x f^-1(x)
-9 (-1/5)*(-9) - 4/5 = 1
