(a) It takes the Earth 365 days to complete a full orbit around the sun. It takes Jupiter approximately 4,332 days, 14 h, and 9

kogti [31]

1 year = 365 days.

1 day = 24 hours.

1 hour = 60 minutes.

First convert the hours and minutes in Jupiter orbit to days:

14*60 = 840 +9 = 849 minutes.

849 / 60 = 14.15 hours.

14.15 / 24 = 0.59 days.

Jupiter's orbit is 4332.59 days.

Now divide that by 365 for the number of years:

4332.59 / 365 = 11.87 years.

Find the inverse of f(x)=1/(x^3)

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y $f(x)^{-1} = inverse\\f(x)=y \\y = 1/(x^{3} \\Inverse: y=x ------------> x = 1/y^{3}\\y^{3} - \frac{1}{x} = 0\\y^{3} = \frac{1}{x}\\y = \sqrt[3]{\frac{1}{x}} \\y = \frac{\sqrt[3]{1} }{\sqrt[3]{x}} \\y = \frac{1}{\sqrt[3]{x}}$
