Answer:

x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

sides of triangle measure: 'x', '4x-2' and '4x-2' since isosceles means both legs are equal

perimeter is the sum of all sides, so set up equation:

95 = 4x - 2 + 4x - 2 + x

95 = 8x - 4 + x

95 = 9x - 4

99 = 9x

x = 11

What is the solution of this equation? -1/2n2+18=0
SashulF [63]

Answer:

n=-6\text{ or } n=6

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the equation:

-\frac{1}{2}n^2+18=0

Subtract 18 from both sides. The left cancels:

-\frac{1}{2}n^2=-18

Multiply both sides by -2. The left cancels again:

n^2=36

Take the square root of both sides:

n=\pm\sqrt{36}

Since we're taking the square root, we need to use plus-minus.

Evaluate:

n=\pm 6

So, the solutions are -6 or 6.

MT&A uses the function f(x)=475-15x-15x.to depreciate smart phones. where f represents the value of smart phone and x repres
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

Find the answers in the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

f(x)=475-15x

A.) To find f^-1 and explain what it represents in this situacions, let f(x) = y. That is,

Y = 475 - 15x

Interchange y and x and make y the subject of formula

X = 475 - 15y

-15y = x - 475

Y = 475/15 - x/15

Y = (475 - x) / 15

Therefore,

f^-1(x) = (475 - x) / 15

If the function depreciates the smartphone, then, the inverse function will appreciate it.

When will the deprecated value of smart phone be less than $100.00

Substitute 100 for f(x) and find x

100 = 475 - 15x

-15x = 100 - 475

-15x = - 375

X = 375/15

X = 25

Therefore, the deprecated value of smart phone be less than $100.00 in the next 26 months.

what does x represent in f^-1(x) =30?

X represent the number of months for the smartphone appreciations

What is the value of x?

Substitute the inverse function for 30 and make x the subject of formula in the equation

f^-1(x) = (475 - x) / 15

30 = (475 - x) / 15

Cross multiply

450 = 475 - x

X = 475 - 450

X = 25 months

Graph f(x) and f^-1 (x) on the same coordinate
