Answer:

  w = -2 or 8 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Setting the two expressions equal makes a quadratic equation:

  -5 +0.6w = w(2.5 -0.3w)

  0.3w^2 -1.9w -5 = 0 . . . . . . subtract the right-side expression

  3w^2 -19s -50 = 0 . . . . . . . multiply by 10 to give integer coefficients

  (3w -25)(w +2) = 0 . . . . . . . factor

We can use the zero product rule to find the solutions. The product will be zero only if a factor is zero.

  3w -25 = 0   ⇒   w = 25/3 = 8 1/3

  w +2 = 0   ⇒   w = -2

The values of w that make the two expressions equivalent are -2 and 8 1/3.

What is the median of the data below?<br><br> 45, 19, 23, 67, 28, 35, 46, 21, 58, 60, 23, 51
VLD [36.1K]
To find the median, you will need to list the data from least to greatest and find the middle number.

19, 21, 23, 23, 28, 35, 45, 46, 51, 58, 60, 67

Cross out a number on both sides until you reach the middle number. In this case, we are left with 2 numbers that are in the middle since there is an even amount of numbers. 

When you reach the time where you have two middle numbers, we have to find the average of those two numbers. Our two middle numbers are 35 and 45. Since we have to find the average of those two numbers, we can add them. (35 + 45 = 80). Now, since we have two middle numbers, we have to divide them by 2. 
80 \div 2 = 40

Answer: \fbox {Median = 40}

Find the inverse of the given function. (pictured below)
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

4

3

0

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = y = -1/2 × sqrt(x+3)

2y = -sqrt(x+3)

4y² = x + 3

x = 4y² - 3

now renaming this, so that the normal symbols and names are used for this function definition, so that the input variable is called "x" :

f-1(x) = 4x² - 3

basically, just by itself, this function would be defined for all possible real values of x.

but because it is the inverse of the original function, which generates only values of y<=0, then for the inverse function that same range applies for its input variable x

x<=0
