Answer:

Veronika's weight = 92 pounds

Kate's weight = 46 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Veronika's weight = x

Let Kate's weight = y

The sum of Veronika's and Kate's weight is 118 pounds.

x + y = 118

Veronika weighs 26 pounds more than Kate.

x = y + 26

How much do they weigh individually?

We substitute y + 26 for x in Equation 1

x + y = 118

y + 26 + y = 118

26 + 2y = 118

2y = 118 - 26

2y = 92

y = 92/2

y = 46 pounds

x = y + 26

x = 46 + 26

x = 92 pounds

Hence,

Veronika's weight = 92 pounds

Kate's weight = 46 pounds

Answer:

  (a)  h^-1(x) = (x+6)/6

Step-by-step explanation:

The inverse relation can be found by solving for y: x = h(y).

<h3>Solution</h3>

  x = h(y) . . . . . the inverse relation

  x = 6y -6 . . . . . use the function definition

  x +6 = 6y . . . . add 6

  (x +6)/6 = y . . . . divide by 6

The inverse function is ...

  \boxed{h^{-1}(x)=\dfrac{x+6}{6}}

Step 1 -3(3x+5)-6&lt;6
Mnenie [13.5K]
Error is between steps 4 and 5. It should say:

Step 4: -9x < 27
Now divide by -9
Step 5: x > -3
Note that the inequality changes direction.
When you mean multiply or divide an inequality by a negative number, the inequality changes direction.

For example:
4 < 5
Multiply by -1:
-4 > -5

Another example:
-5 < 0
5 > 0

Derivative of the following cos(x^{2} y)=y^{2}
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

\cos( {x}^{2}y )  =  {y}^{2}  \\  \frac{d( \cos( {x}^{2}y) ) }{dx}  =  \frac{d( {y}^{2}) }{dx}  \\ (2xy +  {x}^{2} \frac{dy}{dx}  ).( -  \sin( {x}^{2} y) ) = 2y \frac{dy}{dx}  \\   \frac{- 2xy \sin( {x}^{2}y )   -  {x}^{2}  \sin( {x}^{2} y) }{2y}  =  \frac{dy}{dx}  \\
