Step-by-step explanation:

${x}^{2} + 12x - 3 = 16$

${x}^{2} + 12x = 19$

${x}^{2} + 12x + 36 = 19 + 36$

$(x + 6) {}^{2} = 55$

The admission fee at an amusement park is $1.50 for children and $4 for adults. On a certain day 333 people enter the park, the

liberstina [14]

Answer:

188 children and 145 adults were admitted in the park.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The admission fee at an amusement park is $1.50 for children and $4 for adults.

Total $862 collected on a certain day when 333 people enter the park.

Now, to find the children and adults admitted in the park.

Let the number of children admitted be $x.$

And the the number of adults admitted be $y.$

So, the total people enter the park:

$x+y=333\\\\x=333-y\ \ \ ...(1)$

Thus, the total amount collected of the admission fee:

$1.50(x)+4(y)=862\\\\$

Substituting the value of $x$ from equation (1):

$1.50(333-y)+4(y)=862\\\\499.50-1.50y+4y=862\\\\499.50+2.50y=862\\\\Subtracting\ both\ sides\ by\ 499.50\ we\ get:\\\\2.50y=362.50\\\\Dividing\ both\ sides\ by\ 2.50\ we\ get:\\\\y=145.$

Thus, the number of adults = 145.

Now, to get the number of children by substituting the value of $y$ in equation (1) we get:

$x=333-y\\\\x=333-145\\\\x=188.$

Hence, the number of children = 188.

Therefore, 188 children and 145 adults were admitted in the park.

Find the inverse function for

kifflom [539]

$\bf \stackrel{f(x)}{y}=\sqrt{2x-6}\qquad \qquad \stackrel{f^{-1}(x)}{y}=\cfrac{x^2+6}{2}$

that is correct hmmmm, yes, I think the restriction is also correct, it has to be x > 0, because, the domain on the original, has a restriction of x⩾3, otherwise the radicand turns negative.

now, the graph of that original function is a parabola sideways opening to the right, if you include both sides of the vertex of the parabola, it will not pass the vertical-line-test and not be a function, but if you restrict it to only positive roots, so it'll only be on the 1st quadrant, then it functions ok.

that means, the range of the original function, has to stick to only 0 or positive root values, now, recall that the range of the original is the domain of the inverse. Therefore, the domain of the inverse, will have to stick to only 0 or positive values, since it's bound to the same restriction as the original's range.

notice the picture below of both, the dashed section is the positive range for each, if you include it, the original will fail the vertical-line-test, and the inverse will fail the horizontal-line-test.

recall that for a function to have an inverse, they both must pass the vertical and horizontal line test, or be a one-to-one functions.
