find the smaller of 2 consecutive integers,x, if the sum of the smaller and 6 times the larger is -29

AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:- The smaller integer is -5.

Explanation:-

Let the first consecutive integer be x and the second consecutive integer be x+1.

According to the given question:-

x+6(x+1)= -29

⇒x+6x+6= -29 [distributive law]

⇒x+6x= -29-6 [subtract 6 on the both sides]

⇒7x= -35 [combining like terms ]

⇒x= -5 [dividing 7 on both sides]

Thus the smaller integer =x= -5

larger integer =x+1= -5+1= -4

What is the inverse of the function f(x) = 2x + 1?

aliina [53]

First, conceptually understand what an inverse function is, it makes solving it very intuitive. An inverse function is simply a function which has points (y,x) for every point (x,y) of the parent function. So you are essentially taking all points of the parent function and switching the x and y coordinates for each. Those switched coordinates are produced by the "inverse function".

Mathematically then, finding the inverse function is a matter of solving for x and then switching the variable labels. In this case:

y=2x+1 subtract 1 from both sides

y-1=2x divide both sides by 2

(y-1)/2=x now just switch the labels for the variables...

y=(x-1)/2 so

f^-1(x)=(x-1)/2 is the inverse of f(x)=2x+1
