Answer:

(x - 8)² = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² - 16x + 26 = - 24 ( subtract 26 from both sides )

x² - 16x = - 50

To complete the square

add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides

x² + 2(- 8)x + 64 = - 50 + 64

(x - 8)² = 14

A grocery store bought some mangoes at a rate of 5 for a dollar. They were separated into two stacks, one of which was sold at a
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

The ratio of the number of mangoes in the $3 stack to those in the $6 stack is 1 : 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of mangoes bought by the grocery store be n. Also let the number of mango sold for $3 in one stack be x and the number of mango sold for $6 in the second stack be y.

Therefore:

x + y = z                                  (1)

Also, the mangoes was sold at break even price, that is the cost of the mango and the price it was sold for was the same. Therefore:

Cost of buying = Price it was sold for

The cost of the mango = 5z and the price it was sold for = 3x + 6y

3x + 6y = 5z                            (2)

Substituting z = x + y in equation 1

3x + 6y = 5(x + y)

3x + 6y = 5x + 5y

6y - 5y = 5x - 3x

y = 2x

x / y = 1/ 2 = 1 : 2

The ratio of the number of mangoes in the $3 stack to those in the $6 stack is 1 : 2

This set of points is on the graph of a function.
Shtirlitz [24]
Problem 1)

(-3,9) is one point on the original function, so (9,-3) is on the inverse. We swap x and y. The point (9,-3) isn't listed so we move onto the next.

(-1,1) is on the original so (1,-1) is on the inverse. Again we swap x and y. Choice D matches with this. So D is one of the answers.

Choice A is also an answer since (0,0) swaps to (0,0)

Choice C is also an answer since (2,4) swaps to (4,2)

In summary, the answers are A, C, D

======================================================================
Problem 2)
Replace f(x) with y. Swap x and y. Then solve for y

f(x) = 4x+3
y = 4x+3
x = 4y+3
x-3 = 4y+3-3
x-3 = 4y
4y = x-3
4y/4 = (x-3)/4
y = (x-3)/4
y = x/4-3/4
y = (1/4)x-3/4

which matches with choice A, so choice A is the answer

======================================================================
Problem 3)
Replace g(x) with y. Swap x and y. Then solve for y

g(x) = (-4/3)x + 2
y = (-4/3)x + 2
x = (-4/3)y + 2
x-2 = (-4/3)y + 2-2
x-2 = (-4/3)y
(-3/4)(x-2) = (-3/4)(-4/3)y
(-3/4)(x-2) = y
y = (-3/4)(x-2)
y = (-3/4)x+(-3/4)(-2)
y = (-3/4)x+3/2 ... answer is choice C

======================================================================
Problem 4)

The first two are invertible while the last two are not. The last two fail the horizontal line test so they don't have an inverse.

======================================================================
Problem 5)

It's a bit tricky to determine what the answer choices are saying but I'm assuming they are referring to fourth roots. If so, then we have

f(x) = x^4+7
y = x^4+7
x = y^4+7
x-7 = y^4+7-7
x-7 = y^4
y^4 = x-7
FourthRoot(y^4) = FourthRoot(x-7)
y = FourthRoot(x-7)

which is written as \sqrt[4]{x-7}
