Explain why sin^-1(sin(3pi/4))does not equal 3pi/4 when y=sin x and y=sin^-1 x are inverses.

Because they're not inverses, not exactly. \sin x is not invertible on its entire domain because it's not one-to-one. There are infinitely many values of x such that \sin x=0, for example.

The standard function \sin^{-1}x has a domain of -1\le x\le1 and outputs values between -\dfrac\pi2 and \dfrac\pi2. This means that its inverse, \sin x, is indeed its inverse as long as -\dfrac\pi2\le x\le\dfrac\pi2.

\dfrac{3\pi}4 is larger than \dfrac\pi2 and thus does not fall in the "invertible part" of the domain of \sin x. We have

\sin\dfrac{3\pi}4=\dfrac1{\sqrt2}

which is a value between -1 and 1, so that

\sin^{-1}\left(\sin\dfrac{3\pi}4\right)=\sin^{-1}\left(\dfrac1{\sqrt2}\right)=\dfrac\pi4

If we wanted to recover \dfrac{3\pi}4, we'd have to redefine \sin^{-1}x or define a new inverse function that works on a different branch of the domain of \sin x.

I don’t feel like doing it but I we’ll tell you how to do it you multiply it by 3 so 6 x 3 equals 18 just in negative do 18 x 3 equal 54 so every other on is a negative it’s Simone

Find the x- and y-intercepts of the function f(x) = log(2x + 1) − 1.
sleet_krkn [62]
<span>Alright, here's your answer.

y-intercept is computed (not found) by assigning x = 0 and computing y: here that is f(0) = Log(2*0 + 1) – 1 = Log(1) – 1 = 0 – 1 = -1 
y-intercept is (0, -1) 

x-intercept is computed by solving f(x) = 0 for x: here that is 
0 = Log(2x + 1) – 1 → 1 = Log(2x + 1) 

Assuming the Log cited is base 10, then 10^1 = 10^Log(2x + 1) = 2x + 1 

That’s 10 = 2x + 1 

Therefore 9 = 2x 
x = 9/2 = 4.5 
Check this result in the original equation, I did! 

Your answer is - x-intercept is (4.5, 0)

I hope I helped! :)

dsp73

Answer: 24 minutes!

Step-by-step explanation: As mentioned, it can eat 45 ants per minute, How long would it take to eat 1,080 ants?

It's simple, just divide 1080 by 45 and when you divide it, the answer is 24!
