Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

f^-1(x) is the inverse of f(x). That means that f(x) = 2x - 6 becomes...

x = 2y - 6

2y - 6 = x

2y = x + 6

y = 1/2x + 3.

When x = 2...

y = 1/2(2) + 3

= 1 + 3

= 4.

Hope this helps!

write an equation of the perpendicular bisector of the line segment whose endpoints are (-1,1) and (7,-5)

gladu [14]

Find midpoint of segment.
(-1,1), (7,-5)
$x= \frac{-1+7}{2}=3,y= \frac{1+(-5)}{2}=-2$

Find slope of line which passes through (-1,1) and (7,-5).
$m= \frac{-5-1}{7-(-1)}= \frac{-6}{8}=- \frac{3}{4}$

The slope of perpendicular line is negative reciprocal value of m.
$m_{\perp}=- \frac{1}{m} =- \frac{1}{- \frac{3}{4} } = \frac{4}{3}$

Write quation of line which slope is $\frac{4}{3}$ and passes throug the point (3,-2).
$m=\frac{4}{3},x_1=3,y_1=-2
\\y-y_1=m(x-x_1)
\\
\\y-(-2)=\frac{4}{3}(x-3)
\\
\\y+2=\frac{4}{3}x-\frac{8}{3}
\\
\\3y+6=4x-8
\\4x-3y-14=0$

Can anyone help me with this page i can’t find the answers

Dvinal [7]

1) f(x)=2x

when x=3 then f(x) =3×2=6

when x=4 then f(x)=4×2=8

2)At y=35(no. of mangoes),x corresponds to y=60(amount)

so$60, amount he need to spend!

3) f(x)= x+2

for x=1, f(x)=1+2=3

for x=2,f(x)=2+2=4

✌️:)

Can anybody tell me the answers to number 1, 2 & 3 ???!!!!

Novay_Z [31]

Problem 1

Domain = {-1, -3, 2, 1}

Range = {5, 0, 2}

The domain is the set of possible inputs and the range is the set of possible outputs. This is a function because each input goes to exactly one output.

========================================

Problem 2

This is a function as well. We do not have any input going to multiple outputs.

Domain = {-2, -3, 5}

Range = {6, 7, 8}

========================================

Problem 3

This is not a function. The input -4 goes to more than one output (outputs 3 and -1 at the same time)

Domain = {-4, -2, 0}

Range = {3, -1, -2, 4}
