Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the value of x if the polygons in each pair are similar.

As they are similar, the ratio of their sides are equal.

The sides of first polygon are 6,12 and 4.8. On the other hand, the sides of second polygon are (2x-9) and 18.

So,

\dfrac{6}{2x-9}=\dfrac{12}{18}\\\\\dfrac{6}{2x-9}=\dfrac{2}{3}\\\\\dfrac{3}{2x-9}=\dfrac{1}{3}\\\\x=9

So, the value of x  is equal to 9.

Determine whether f(x) = 5x+1/x and g(x)= x/ 5x+1 are inverse functions explain how you know. please explain in steps or worded
Len [333]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

No


Discussion:

If the functions are inverses, then f(g(x)) = x  for appropriate x. Consider x = 1.

g(1) = 1/ (5(1) + 1) = 1/6

f(g(1)) = f (1/6) =  5(1/6) + 1/ (1/6) = 5/6 + 6 = 6 5/6   <> 1

Conclusion: f(g(1)) <> 1 so the functions are not inverses


Thank you,

MrB
