Hi!
1/4 of 20 pencils are 5 pencils.
Since he gave away 4 pencils,
Total = 5 + 4 = 9
Mr. Simms use and give away total 9 pencils.
If 1295 × p = 714, then you can rearrange the equation to find the percentage.
You have to get p on its own, so you divide 1295 on both sides of the '='.
1295 × p = 714
p = 714 ÷ 1295
p = <span>0.55135135135...
p </span>× 100 = actual percentage
actual percentage = 55.14%
Since f(g(x)) = g(f(x)) = x, hence the function f(x) and g(x) are inverses of each other.
<h3>Inverse of functions</h3>
In order to determine if the function f(x) and g(x) are inverses of each other, the composite function f(g(x)) = g(f(x))
Given the function
f(x)= 5-3x/2 and
g(x)= 5-2x/3
f(g(x)) = f(5-2x/3)
Substitute
f(g(x)) = 5-3(5-2x)/3)/2
f(g(x)) = (5-5+2x)/2
f(g(x)) = 2x/2
f(g(x)) = x
Similarly
g(f(x)) = 5-2(5-3x/2)/3
g(f(x)) = 5-5+3x/3
g(f(x)) = 3x/3
g(f(x)) =x
Since f(g(x)) = g(f(x)) = x, hence the function f(x) and g(x) are inverses of each other.
