Approximately Alex save on average between weeks 2 and 24 $17.41 per week.
I hope this helps!
I think division. I don’t know, I might be wrong. ♀️
Step OneFor convenience f(x) = y
y = -(1/2) sqrt(x + 3) Interchange x and y
x = -(1/2) sqrt(y + 3) Multiply both sides by -2
(-2x) = sqrt(y + 3) Square both sides
4x^2 = y + 3 Subtract 3 from both sides
4x^2 -3 = y
f-1(x) = 4x^2 - 3

The inverse is red.
Green Line y = x : explained below.
CommentInverses have a very strange property. It acts as a check.
If you perform the following operation
f-1(f(x)) you are left with x
In this case f-1[-1/2 sqrt(x + 3)]= 4(-1/2 * sqrt(x + 3))^2 - 3
f-1 (-1/2sqrt(x+3)) = 4 (1/4 (x+3) - 3
f-1(-1/2sqrt(x + 3)) = x+ 3 - 3 = x
I've included this because I think you have to put the same restriction on f-1(x) as you do on f(x) which is that for f(x) x ≥ -3
This last assertion could be incorrect, but I don't think so.
The answer is f-1(x) = 4x^2 - 3 <<<<<
answer first box and
x≥-3 for the second box. <<<<<<
answer for the second box.Let me know if these are correct. I'm not sure about the restrictions.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The cost of the mountain bike is $650.00 with 75% down payment. The down payment that he needs to produce is $487.50. He needs to pay an additional of 12 payments, $24.38 each. This will be added to the money that he needs to pay. The total amount paid is:
$24.38 * 12 payments + $487.50 = $780.06
