Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4 (5x -3)+8=17

3/4 (5x -3) = 17 - 8 = 9

(5x -3) = 9 * (4/3)= 36/3 = 12

5x = 12 + 3 = 15

x = 3

Kaylee has 2 gallons each of red and blue paint, and 1 gallon each of orange and green paint. She paints her bedroom with these

Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

3( 73/84 )left over

Step-by-step explanation:

She had 6 gallons in total

2/3+1/4+1/2+5/7=179/84 = 2 ( 11/84)

6/1-179/84 = 325/84 = 3(73/84)

She used 179/84

She have left 325/84

179/84 + 325/84 = 6

With mixed numbers:

2 11/84

3 73/84

2+3=5 11/84+73/84= 84/84 =1

5+1=6

How to show these 2 problems are inverses

nataly862011 [7]

$\bf \begin{cases}
f(x)=\sqrt[3]{7x-2}\\\\
g(x)=\cfrac{x^3+2}{7}
\end{cases}\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
now
\\\\
f[\ g(x)\ ]\implies f\left[ \frac{x^3+2}{7} \right]\implies \sqrt[3]{7\left[ \frac{x^3+2}{7} \right]-2}\implies \sqrt[3]{x^3+2-2}
\\\\\\
\sqrt[3]{x^3}\implies x\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
or
\\\\
g[\ f(x)\ ]\implies g\left[\sqrt[3]{7x-2}\right]\implies \cfrac{\left[\sqrt[3]{7x-2}\right]^3+2}{7}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{7x-2+2}{7}\implies \cfrac{7x}{7}\implies x$

thus f[ g(x) ] = x indeed, or g[ f(x) ] =x, thus they're indeed inverse of each other
