Answer:

Benny started off with 16 comic books.

Step-by-step explanation:

x/2 + 6 = 14

solve

x/2 + 6 = 14

<u>       -6     -6</u>

x/2 = 8

multiply by 2

x = 16

What is the inverse of f(x)=(-2x+2)/(x+7)?
Nana76 [90]

By applying the concept of the inverse of a function and <em>algebraic</em> handling, we conclude that the inverse of f(x) = (- 2 · x + 2)/(x + 7) is g(x) = (- 7 · x + 2)/(x + 2).

<h3>How to find the inverse of a function</h3>

In this question we have a <em>rational</em> function f(x) and finding its inverse consists in clearing x in terms of f(x). Prior any algebraic handling, we need to apply the following substitutions:

x \to y

f(x) \to x

x = \frac{-2\cdot y + 2}{y+7}

x · (y + 7) = - 2 · y + 2

x · y + 7 · x = - 2 · y + 2

2 · y + x · y = - 7 · x + 2

y · (2 + x) = - 7 · x + 2

g(x) = \frac{- 7\cdot x + 2}{x + 2}

By applying the concept of the inverse of a function and <em>algebraic</em> handling, we conclude that the inverse of f(x) = (- 2 · x + 2)/(x + 7) is g(x) = (- 7 · x + 2)/(x + 2).
