If we take the equation and multiply out the left side, we get....

+ 2xk +

=

+ x +

The x^2 and k^2 cancel out on both sides leaving us with this...
2kx = x
If we divide both sides by 2x to isolate k,
k ends up = 1/2
Answer:
Area of rectangle = l×b= 3 1/4 × 1 1/2
= 31/8 = 4 7/8
<u>Answer</u>
y⁻¹ = ∛(4x+8)
<u>Explanation</u>
y=(1/4)x³ - 2.
To find the inverse of this equation, you first make x the subject of the formular.
y=(1/4)x³ - 2
Multiply both sides by 4;
4y = x³ - 8
Add 8 on both sides of the equation;
4y + 8 = x³
x³ = 4y + 8
Apply the cube root on both sides to get the value of x;
x = ∛(4y+8)
The inverse of y=(1/4)x³ - 2 is;
y⁻¹ = ∛(4x+8)
I need points so I can ask my question hope you get your answer
There are 81 girls to every 72 boys in total, which can be represented by 81/72, which put into decimal form, is 1.125. If you then take the number of boys in the group, 16, and multiply it by this number (because the problem states that the ratio is constant) you can find the number of girls in the group.
16*1.125=18
So there are 18 girls in a group with 16 boys.
