Answer:

let the ratio be in x 

a/q. 3x + 2x = 300000

 5x = 300000

x = 300000/5

x= 60000

Leona = 60000*3 = 180000

Janet = 60000*2 = 120000

How to answer this on descending powers of x please help pretty please

zheka24 [161]

Answer: 25x² - 64

Step-by-step explanation:

(5x + 8)(5x - 8)

= 5x(5x - 8) + 8(5x - 8)

= 25x² - 40x + 40x - 64

= 25x² + 0x - 64

= $\large\boxed{25x^2-64}$

NOTE: descending powers means the biggest exponent goes first, then the next biggest exponent, etc.

For example: x⁴ then x³ then x² then x then the number (which is actually x⁰)

If g(x)=4x-6 then g^-1(x)=? (1) -4x+6 (2)-1/4x+1/6 (3)1/4x+3/2 (4)1/4x+6

kati45 [8]

Given:

$g(x)=4x-6$

To find:

The function $g^{-1}(x)$ .

Solution:

we have,

$g(x)=4x-6$

Put g(x)=y.

$y=4x-6$

Interchange x and y.

$x=4y-6$

Isolate y.

$x+6=4y$

$\dfrac{x+6}{4}=y$

$y=\dfrac{x+6}{4}$

Substitute $y=g^{-1}(x)$ .

$g^{-1}(x)=\dfrac{x+6}{4}$

$g^{-1}(x)=\dfrac{x}{4}+\dfrac{6}{4}$

$g^{-1}(x)=\dfrac{x}{4}+\dfrac{3}{2}$

Therefore, the correct option is (3).
