Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

use y2-y1/x2-x1=m to find slope so if you plug both of the points in you would get 1-3/4-2=-2/2 and that would equal -1

4. Determine whether f(x) = 1/3x + 5 and g(x) = 3x - 15 are inverse functions.
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

YES! we conclude that f(x) = 1/3x + 5 and g(x) = 3x - 15 are inverse functions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Given that the function f(x) and g(x) are inverse functions.

f\left(x\right)\:=\:\frac{1}{3}x\:+\:5

g(x) = 3x - 15

To determine

Let us determine whether f(x) = 1/3x + 5 and g(x) = 3x - 15 are inverse functions.

<u>Determining the inverse function of f(x) </u>

A function g is the inverse function of f if for y = f(x), x = g(y)

y=\frac{1}{3}x+5

Replace x with y

x=\frac{1}{3}y+5

Solve for y

y=3x-15

Therefore,

YES! we conclude that f(x) = 1/3x + 5 and g(x) = 3x - 15 are inverse functions.

The cost, in millions of dollars, for a company to manufacture x thousand speed boats is given by the function C(x) = 3x2 - 30x
nalin [4]

Answer:

  5000

Step-by-step explanation:

In vertex form, the cost function is ...

  C(x) = 3(x² -10x) +175 = 3(x² -10x +25) +175 -3(25)

  C(x) = 3(x -5)² +100

The vertex is at x=5, so the cost function will be minimized when 5000 speed boats are produced.

Use a matrix to solve the system:
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

(2.83 , 1 , 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+2y-z=4\\4x-2y-2z=2\\3x+3y-4z=-4\\

Rewrite these equations in matrix form

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}2&2&-1\\4&-2&-2\\3&3&-4\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\\z\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}4\\2\\-4\end{array}\right] \\

we can write it like this,

AX=B\\X=A^{-1}B

so to solve it we need to take the inverse of the 3 x 3 matrix A then multiply it by B.

We get the inverse of matrix A,

A^{-1}=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}7/15&1/6&-1/5\\1/3&-1/6&0\\3/5&0&-2/5\end{array}\right]  \\

now multiply the matrix with B

X=A^{-1}B\\\\\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\\z\end{array}\right] =\left[\begin{array}{ccc}7/15&1/6&-1/5\\1/3&-1/6&0\\3/5&0&-2/5\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}4\\2\\-4\end{array}\right] \\\\\\\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\\z\end{array}\right] =\left[\begin{array}{ccc}2.83\\1\\4\end{array}\right] \\

Which expression is equivalent to  4 7/8 ÷ 4 1/4​
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

Improper fraction: 39/34

Proper fraction: 1 5/34

Decimal: 1.147 (rounded to the nearest thousandths).

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve each expression given, if it has the same result, then the expressions is equivalent. Solve the given expression:

4 7/8 ÷ 4 1/4

First, change all fractions into improper fractions:

4 7/8 = (4 * 8)/8 + 7/8 = 32/8 + 7/8 = 39/8

4 1/4 = (4 * 4)/4  + 1/4 = 16/4 + 1/4 = 17/4

Next, find common denominators. Note that what you do to the denominator, you must do the numerator:

(17/4) * (2/2) = (34/8)

39/8 ÷ 17/4

Solve. First, change the division sign into multiplication, and then flip the second fraction:

39/8 ÷ 17/4 = 39/8 x 4/17

Multiply straight across:

39/8 x 4/17 = (39 x 4)/(8 x 17) = 156/136 = 39/34 (simplified), or 1 5/34.
