Answer: $f^{1}=\frac{2x}{x-1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Write f(x) =x/x-2 as an equation

$f(x)=\frac{x}{x-2}$

Interchange the variables

$x=\frac{y}{y-2}$

solve for y, multiply equation by y-2.

$y=\frac{2x}{x-1}\\$

replace y with $f^{1}$ (x)

you get the above answer.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First, convert all the secants and cosecants to cosine and sine, respectively. Recall that $csc(x)=1/sin(x)$ and $sec(x)=1/cos(x)$ .

Thus:

$\frac{sec(x)}{cos(x)} -\frac{sin(x)}{csc(x)cos^2(x)}$

$=\frac{\frac{1}{cos(x)} }{cos(x)} -\frac{sin(x)}{\frac{1}{sin(x)}cos^2(x) }$

Let's do the first part first: (Recall how to divide fractions)

$\frac{\frac{1}{cos(x)} }{cos(x)}=\frac{1}{cos(x)} \cdot \frac{1}{cos(x)}=\frac{1}{cos^2(x)}$

For the second term:

$\frac{sin(x)}{\frac{cos^2(x)}{sin(x)} } =\frac{sin(x)}{1} \cdot\frac{sin(x)}{cos^2(x)}=\frac{sin^2(x)}{cos^2(x)}$

So, all together: (same denominator; combine terms)

$\frac{1}{cos^2(x)}-\frac{sin^2(x)}{cos^2(x)}=\frac{1-sin^2(x)}{cos^2(x)}$

Note the numerator; it can be derived from the Pythagorean Identity:

$sin^2(x)+cos^2(x)=1; cos^2(x)=1-sin^2(x)$

Thus, we can substitute the numerator:

$\frac{1-sin^2(x)}{cos^2(x)}=\frac{cos^2(x)}{cos^2(x)}=1$

Everything simplifies to 1.

Suppose a room is 5.2 m long by 4.3m wide and 2.9 m high and has an air conditioner that exchanges air at a rate of 1200 L/min.

Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

54 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are given;

A room with dimensions 5.2 m by 4.3 m by 2.9 m
The exchange air rate is 1200 L/min

We are required to determine the time taken to exchange the air in the room;

First we are going to determine the volume of the room;

Volume of the room = length × width × height

= 5.2 m × 4.3 m × 2.9 m

= 64.844 m³

Then we should know, that 1 m³ = 1000 L

Therefore, we can convert the volume of the room into L

= 64.844 m³ × 1000 L

= 64,844 L

But, the rate is 1200 L/min

Thus, time = Volume ÷ rate

= 64,844 L ÷ 1200 L/min

= 54.0367 minutes

= 54 minutes

Therefore, it would take approximately 54 minutes

The population of a county is growing at a rate of 9% per year, compounded continuously. How many years will it take for the pop

torisob [31]

Answer:

$t=15.4\ years$

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential growth function compounded continuously is equal to

$A=P(e)^{rt}$

where

A is the final population

P is the initial population

r is the rate of growth in decimal

t is Number of years

e is the mathematical constant number

we have

$A=4x\\P=x\\ r=9\%=9/100=0.09$

substitute in the function above

$4x=x(e)^{0.09t}$

simplify

$4=(e)^{0.09t}$

Take natural log of both sides

$ln(4)=ln[(e)^{0.09t}]$

$ln(4)=0.09t(ln(e))$

$ln(e)=1$

$ln(4)=0.09t$

$t=ln(4)/0.09$

$t=15.4\ years$
