To calculate the inverse isolate x on one side and switch x with y on both sides
1)
y=(2x-3)/5
5y=2x-3
5y+3=2x
(5y+3)/2=x
-> f(x)=(5x+3)/2
2)
y=(x+8)/2
2y=x+8
2y-8=x
-> f(x)=2x-8
3)
y=(x+2)/7
7y=x+2
7y-2=x
-> f(x)=7x-2
4)
y=(1-2x)/x
y=(1/x)-2
y+2=1/x
x=1/(y+2)
-> f(x)=1/(x+2)
To find sales tax on something, multiply the percent of the tax by the price of the item.
Answer:
420 + 15 = 435
360 + 45 = 405
435 - 405 = 30.
30 minutes less sunlight
Step-by-step explanation:
3) an $8 delivery fee and $1.50 per litre of water
This is because the $8 is a constant baseline, then adding $1.50 times the amount of litres purchased.
Let x be the number, then 60 = 40% of x & x =60/40%=60/0.4=150
then the number of which 60 represent 40% of it is 150
2) Let x be the time needed to the 16 clerks to finish the job
In one day the 32 clerks complete a portion of 32/22 of the job
In one day the 16 clerks complete a portion of 16/x of the job
So in 1 day===> 32/22 =16/x ==> x=(22*16)/32 = 11 days
