Answer:

2.5 inches per year

Step-by-step explanation:

We can deduce the rate of change by obtaining the slope or gradient of thw points given :

Gradient = Rise / Run.

Point A (2, 5) ; point B (4, 10)

x1 = 2 ; y1 = 5 ;x2 = 4 ; y2 = 10

Rise = y2 - y1 = 10 - 5 = 5

Run = x2 - x1 = 4 - 2 = 2

Rate of change = Gradient = 5 /2 = 2.5

Which is 2.5 inches per year

Answer:

$x=4\sqrt{3},\:x=-4\sqrt{3}$ are the roots.

Step-by-step explanation:

$x=4\sqrt{3},\:x=-4\sqrt{3}$

Considering the expression

$x^2\:-\:48$

Solving

$x^2-48=0$

$x^2-48+48=0+48$

$x^2=48$

$\mathrm{For\:}x^2=f\left(a\right)\mathrm{\:the\:solutions\:are\:}x=\sqrt{f\left(a\right)},\:\:-\sqrt{f\left(a\right)}$

$x=\sqrt{48},\:x=-\sqrt{48}$

Solving

$x=\sqrt{48}$

= $\sqrt{2^4\cdot \:3}$

$\mathrm{Apply\:radical\:rule}:\quad \sqrt[n]{ab}=\sqrt[n]{a}\sqrt[n]{b}$

= $\sqrt{3}\sqrt{2^4}$

$\mathrm{Apply\:radical\:rule}:\quad \sqrt[n]{a^m}=a^{\frac{m}{n}}$

$\sqrt{2^4}=2^{\frac{4}{2}}=2^2$

$=2^2\sqrt{3}$

$=4\sqrt{3}$

So,

$x=4\sqrt{3}$

Similarly,

$x=-\sqrt{48}=-4\sqrt{3}$

Therefore, $x=4\sqrt{3},\:x=-4\sqrt{3}$ are the roots.

Answer:

f(x) and g(x) are inverse functions

Step-by-step explanation:

In the two functions f(x) and g(x) if, f(g(x)) = g(f(x)) = x, then

f(x) and g(x) are inverse functions

Let us use this rule to solve the question

∵ f(x) = 3x²

∵ g(x) = $\sqrt{\frac{x}{3}}$

→ Find f(g(x)) by substitute x in f(x) by g(x)

∴ f(g(x)) = 3( $\sqrt{\frac{x}{3}}$ )²

→ Cancel the square root with power 2

∴ f(g(x)) = 3( $\frac{x}{3}$ )

→ Cancel the 3 up with the 3 down

∴ f(g(x)) = x

→ Find g(f(x)) by substitute x in g(x) by f(x)

∴ g(f(x)) = $\sqrt{\frac{3x^{2}}{3}}$

→ Cancel the 3 up with the 3 down

∴ g(f(x)) = $\sqrt{x^{2}}$

→ Cancel the square root with power 2

∴ g(f(x)) = x

∵ f(g(x)) = g(f(x)) = x

→ By using the rule above

∴ f(x) and g(x) are inverse functions
