A + b = 50
a = 2b - 43
2b - 43 + b = 50
+43 +43
3b = 93
b = 31
(31 x 2) - 43 = 19
a = 19 b = 31
31 + 19 = 50

Which function is the inverse of f(x) = -5x-4?

tankabanditka [31]

Step-by-step explanation:

$f(x) = - 5x - 4$

$\:$

<u>Inverse</u>

$y = - 5x - 4$

$x = - 5y - 4$

$x + 4 = - 5y$

$y = - \frac{(x + 4)}{5}$

${f}^{ - 1} (x) = - \frac{(x + 4)}{5}$

The number 2017 can be expressed as the difference of the squares of two consecutive whole numbers. What is the sum of these two

SSSSS [86.1K]

Let x be the first number

X + 1 be the second number

So

(x+1)^2 – x^2 = 2017

X^2 + 2x +1 – x^2 = 2017

2x + 1 = 2017

2x = 2017 – 1

2x = 2016

X = 1008

X + 1 = 1009

Sum = 1008 + 1009 = 2017
