Answer:
The functions are inverses; f(g(x)) = x ⇒ answer D
⇒ answer D
Step-by-step explanation:
* <em>Lets explain how to find the inverse of a function</em>
- Let f(x) = y
- Exchange x and y
- Solve to find the new y
- The new y = 
* <em>Lets use these steps to solve the problems</em>
∵ 
∵ f(x) = y
∴ 
- Exchange x and y
∴ 
- Square the two sides
∴ x² = y - 3
- Add 3 to both sides
∴ x² + 3 = y
- Change y by 
∴ 
∵ g(x) = x² + 3
∴ 
∴ <u><em>The functions are inverses to each other</em></u>
* <em>Now lets find f(g(x))</em>
- To find f(g(x)) substitute x in f(x) by g(x)
∵ 
∵ g(x) = x² + 3
∴ 
∴ <u><em>f(g(x)) = x</em></u>
∴ The functions are inverses; f(g(x)) = x
* <em>Lets find the inverse of h(x)</em>
∵ h(x) = 3x² - 1 where x ≥ 0
- Let h(x) = y
∴ y = 3x² - 1
- Exchange x and y
∴ x = 3y² - 1
- Add 1 to both sides
∴ x + 1 = 3y²
- Divide both sides by 3
∴ 
- Take √ for both sides
∴ ± 
∵ x ≥ 0
∴ We will chose the positive value of the square root
∴ 
- replace y by 
∴ 
Answer:
1/4, or 4 times smaller
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the surface area of a cube is just the combination of the area of all of the square sides, and the formula for those is s^2, if the side length was decreased by 1/2 then the surface area would decrease by (1/2)^2=1/4. Hope this helps!
Answer:
-2/1 or -2
Step-by-step explanation:
in an equation this would be y=-2x-3
The answer to -7 +11 -6 + 8 =6
Y=2x+6
gradient is found from the formula,

y intercept is found by subbing the values of (-1,4) into the equation y=2x+c
