Answer:

k = 0.381cm/gallon

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount a tree grows in one month be x

Let amount of water it is given be y

If the amount a tree grows in one month is directly proportional to the amount of water it is given, then;

x ∝ y

x = ky

k is the constant of proportionality

k = x/y

Given

x = 8cm

y = 21 gallons

k = 8/21

k = 0.381cm/gallon

State if the given functions are inverses<br>NO LINKS!!!! Part 1​
Dafna11 [192]

Step-by-step explanation:

3:

h(x)=(-3x-15)/5

let y=(-3x-15)/5

interchanging role of x &y

x=(-3y-15)/5

5x+15=-3y

y=-(5x+15)/3

h-1(x)=-(5x+15)/3

not

equal to f(x)=(-3x-6)/4

<u>G</u><u>i</u><u>v</u><u>e</u><u>n</u><u> </u><u>func</u>tion <u>are</u><u> </u><u>not</u><u> </u><u>function</u><u> </u><u>of</u><u> </u><u>each </u><u>other</u><u> </u><u>.</u>

4:

g(x)=2/3x-2/3

let

y=2/3(x-1)

interchanging role of x &y

x=2/3(y-1)

3/2x+1=y

g-1(x)=3/2x+1

not equal to f(x)=½x+1

<u>Given function are not function of each other .</u>
