Answer:

9x + 3 = 7x + 19

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Jeffrey set up chairs for a meeting.

He arranged the chairs in 9 equal rows but had 3 chairs left over.

Let x be the number of chairs. So,

9x+3 .....(1)

Then he arranged the chairs in 7 equal rows but had 19 chairs left over. So,

7x+19 ......(2)

From equation (1) and (2),

9x+3 = 7x+19

9x-7x = 19-3

2x = 16

x = 8

Hence, the correct option is (b).

Find the height of the prism if the length is 9 inches, the width is 5 inches, and the volume of the prism is 315 cubic inches.

trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

Height of prism = 7 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let h be the height of prism.

Hence,

$h = \frac{vol \: of \: prism}{l \times w} \\ \\ = \frac{315}{9 \times 5} \\ \\ = \frac{315}{45} \\ \\ h= 7 \: inches$

Find an equation for the inverse for each of the following.

IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

To solve these first swap x and y, solve for y and name it inverse function

3. y = -8x + 2

x = -8y + 2
8y = -x + 2
y = -x/8 + 2/8
y = -(18)x + 1/4

f⁻¹(x) = -(18)x + 1/4

-----------------------------------------

4. y = (2/3)x - 5

x = (2/3)y - 5
(2/3)y = x + 5
y = (3/2)x + (3/2)5
y = 1.5x + 7.5

f⁻¹(x) = 1.5x + 7.5

-----------------------------------------

5. f(x) = 2x² - 6

x = 2y² - 6
2y² = x + 6
y² = 1/2x + 3
y = $\sqrt{1/2x + 3}$

f⁻¹(x) = $\sqrt{1/2x + 3}$

-----------------------------------------

6. y = (x - 3)²

x = (y - 3)²
$\sqrt{x}$ = y - 3
y = 3 + $\sqrt{x}$

f⁻¹(x) = 3 + $\sqrt{x}$
