When you look at this, you might not be sure which way to divide ...
Should you divide  6 by 5  or  5 by 6 ?

Here's a case where you can use your units to decide.

The question wants to know the 'period'.  That's a length of time,
so the answer needs to have units of time.

If you divide 'cycles' be 'time', you'll get  'cycles/second'.
That's Hz.  It's frequency, not time.

If you divide 'time' by 'cycles', you'll get 'seconds/cycle'.
That's time, and it's exactly the definition of 'period'.

            Period  =  (6 seconds) / (5 cycles)

                         =    (6 / 5)  seconds/cycle

                         =     1.2  seconds

If f^-1(y) is the inverse of f(x) which statements must be true?
Salsk061 [2.6K]
Let us assume f(x) = 2x - 5
f⁻¹(x) = (x + 5)/2
f(f⁻¹(x)) = 2((x + 5)/2) - 5 = x
f⁻¹(f(x)) = (2x - 5 + 5)/2 = x
The domain of a function is the range of its inverse and vice versa
The range of a function is the domain of its inverse and vice versa
Therefore, statements A, B, D and E are true

If the designers of submarines do not appropriately account for hydrostatic pressure,
andre [41]

Answer:

A) the pressure could crush the submarine

Explanation:

  • The submarines are mainly used for defense purposes.
  • In world war 1 and 2 the submarines played a vital role in the war.
  • The submarines work according to the principle of buoyancy.
  • According to this principle, when seawater is filled inside the tank in a required amount, the submarines sink.
  • When the seawater is expelled, the submarine rises to above the sea.
  • Most of the time, it dives deep into the sea, the hydrostatic pressure should be taken into account.
  • If the hydrostatic pressure is not considered, the pressure could crush the submarine.
