Answer:

Add 81/4 to both sides.

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 − 9x − 8 = 0

x^2 - 9x = 8

Take the coefficient of the x term: -9

Divide by 2: -9/2

Square it: 81/4

Add 81/4 to both sides.

A Walgreens purchase comes to $28. Find the total cost if a 2% sales tax is included.
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

The answer is $28.56

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the 2% sales tax, you need to multiply the 2% or 0.02 by 28.

Doing this will give you 0.56.

Then you add 0.56 to 28 to get 28.56, hence, $28.56 is the total cost.

Hope it helps!

If f(x) = - 8x +2 then f^-1(x) =
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

f^-1(x)  = -1/8x +1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the inverse of a function

Exchange x and y and then solve for y

y =-8x+2

Exchange x and y

x = -8y+2

Now solve for  y

Subtract 2 from each side

x-2 = -8y+2-2

x-2 = -8y

Divide by -8

(x-2)/-8 = -8y/-8

Distribute

-1/8x +1/4 = y

f^-1(x) = -1/8x +1/4
