Answer:

  Pears:  30

Step-by-step explanation:

Constant:

  3x + 5x + 2x = 150

                 10x = 150

                    x = 15  

Multiply ratio with constant from above:

  oranges : apples

       3 * 15 : 5 * 15

            45 : 75       ==>               45 oranges: 75 apples

  pears : apples

   2 * 15 : 5 * 15

        30 : 75          ==>                    30 pears: 75 apples

Check:

45 oranges + 75 apples + 30 pears = 150 fruits

F(x)=2x+1/x-1 then f^-1(1)​
olasank [31]

Answer:

  • f⁻¹(x) = (x + 1) / (x - 2)
  • f⁻¹(1 ) = - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given function:</u>

  • f(x) = (2x + 1) / (x - 1)

<u>Find its inverse, substitute x with y and f(x) with x, solve for y:</u>

  • x = (2y + 1) / (y - 1)
  • x(y - 1) = 2y + 1
  • xy - x = 2y + 1
  • xy - 2y = x + 1
  • y(x - 2) = x + 1
  • y = (x + 1) / (x - 2)

<u>Substitute y with f⁻¹(x):</u>

  • f⁻¹(x) = (x + 1) / (x - 2)

<u>Find  f⁻¹(1 ):</u>

  • f⁻¹(1 ) = ( 1 + 1) / (1 - 2) = 2 / - 1 = - 2
