Answer:

x = 10 / 7 (or) 1.43 <rounded to 2 decimal place>

y = - 54 / 7 (or) -7.71 <rounded to 2 decimal place>

Step-by-step explanation:

Another way to rewrite (5x-3y, 3x-y) = (16, 12),

5x - 3y = 16 -- (1)

3x - y = 12 -- (2)

Rewriting (1), y = -5/3x - 16/3 -- (1)'

Substituting (1)' into (2),

3x + 5/3x + 16/3 = 12

14/3x = 20/3

x = 10 / 7 -- (3)

Substituting (3) into (2),

3(10/7) - y = 12

30/7 - y = 12

-y = 54 / 7

y = - 54/7-- (4)

Therefore,

x = 10 / 7 (or) 1.43 <rounded to 2 decimal place>

y = - 54 / 7 (or) -7.71 <rounded to 2 decimal place>

One car travel 56 miles per hour and another travels 31 miles per hour. If they start from the same place at the same time and t

Vitek1552 [10]

After 3 hours, the faster car will be 75 miles ahead of the slower car.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Speed of first car = 56 miles per hour

Speed of second car = 31 miles per hour

Let,

x be the number of hours.

Distance covered by first car = Speed * time = 56x

Distance covered by second car = 31x

According to given statement;

Difference between distance covered by both cars = 75 miles

Distance of faster car - Distance of slower car = 75 miles

$56x-31x=75\\25x=75$

Dividing both sides by 25

$\frac{25x}{25}=\frac{75}{25}\\x=3$

After 3 hours, the faster car will be 75 miles ahead of the slower car.

You have been asked to find the inverse of f (x) = 3+Vx - 1. What would your

Paha777 [63]

Answer:

Add 1 to both sides of the equation.

Subtract 3 from both sides of the equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The inverse of a function refers to that function that tends to undo another function.

If we intend to find the inverse of the function, f(x) = 3+ V2 - 1, we have to first add 1 to both sides of the equation and subsequently subtract 3 from both sides of the equation before taking the square root of both sides to obtain the inverse function.

Step-by-step explanation:

I hope this helps you :)

How are the two functions f(x) = 0.7(6)x and g(x) = 0.7(6)–x related to each other?

Harlamova29_29 [7]

The answer
f(x) = 0.7(6)x = f(x) = 0.7(6)^x, and g(x) = 0.7(6)–x= g(x) = 0.7(6)^-x=1/0.7(6)^x
so 
g(x) =1/0.7(6)^x=1 /f(x)

 the relationship between f and g are g(x) =1 /f(x) or g(x) . f(x) = 1
