Hey there!!
A chicken has 1 head and 2 feet . A goat has 1 head and 4 feet
For heads, total = 40
Let us take the number of chickens as ' x ' and goats as ' y '
x + y = 40 ------------- ( 1 )
2x + 4y = 150 ----------- ( 2 )
Multiply the first equation with 2
2x + 2y = 80
2x + 4y = 150
Subtract the first equation from the first
2y = 70
y = 35
Number of goats = 35
substitute this in other equation
x + y = 40
x + 35 = 40
x = 5
Number of chickens are 4
Hope it helps!
Answer:
all I know is how to get y but y=122
Step-by-step explanation:
y=3(40)+2
y=120+2
y=122
sorry but I dont know what to do for x
f(x)=x3−5
Replace f(x)
with y
.
y=x3−5
Interchange the variables.
x=y3−5
Solve for y
.
Since y
is on the right side of the equation, switch the sides so it is on the left side of the equation.
y3−5=x
Add 5
to both sides of the equation.
y3=5+x
Take the cube root of both sides of the equation to eliminate the exponent on the left side.
y=3√5+x
Solve for y
and replace with f−1(x)
.
Replace the y
with f−1(x)
to show the final answer.
f−1(x)=3√5+x
Set up the composite result function.
f(g(x))
Evaluate f(g(x))
by substituting in the value of g into f
.
(3√5+x)3−5
Simplify each term.
Remove parentheses around 3√5+x
.
f(3√5+x)=3√5+x3−5
Rewrite 3√5+x3
as 5+x
.
f(3√5+x)=5+x−5
Simplify by subtracting numbers.
.
Subtract 5
from 5
.
f(3√5+x)=x+0
Add x
and 0
.
f(3√5+x)=x
Since f(g(x))=x
, f−1(x)=3√5+x is the inverse of f(x)=x3−5
.
f−1(x)=3√5+x
