Answer:

f^-1(x) = 2x/(x -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find the inverse function by solving for y:

$f(y)=x\\\\\dfrac{y}{y-2}=x\\\\x(y-2)=y \qquad\text{multiply by $y-2$}\\\\xy-2x=y \qquad\text{eliminate parentheses}\\\\xy-y=2x \qquad\text{add $2x-y$}\\\\y(x-1)=2x \qquad\text{factor}\\\\y=\dfrac{2x}{x-1} \qquad\text{divide by the coefficient of $y$}\\\\\boxed{f^{-1}(x)=\dfrac{2x}{x-1}} \qquad\text{in functional form}$

Multiply(2.3 x 10 -5) (3.1 x 10 12)

pychu [463]

2.3*10-5=18

3.1*10 (dunno what to do with 12, there's no sign) but = 31 (that's w/o the 12)

Now multiply which = 558 (do whatever with the 12 to the equation.

If using the method of completing the square to solve the quadratic equation x 2 − 9 x − 8 = 0 x 2 −9x−8=0, which number would h

Stels [109]

Answer:

Add 81/4 to both sides.

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 − 9x − 8 = 0

x^2 - 9x = 8

Take the coefficient of the x term: -9

Divide by 2: -9/2

Square it: 81/4

Add 81/4 to both sides.
