No, they are not equivalent because if you distribute the -0.5 in the expression -0.5(3x+5) you will get -1.5x-2.5 which is not the same as -1.5+2.5

What is the inverse function of f(x)=6x^3-3?
Natasha_Volkova [10]
<span>f(x)=6x^3-3

1.  Replace f(x) with y:  y = 6x^3 - 3   
2.  Interchange x and y:  x = 6y^3 - 3       x+3                                      x+3
3.  Solve this result for y:    y^3 =           ---------   or y = cube root of  -------
                                 -1                                6                                          6

Hi there- kinda confused on this
Anit [1.1K]

D) 5 is the answer

Assuming AE and CE are the same length you would set the two equations to each other: 8x+7=11x-8

Then solve for x:
Subtract 8x from both sides and add 8 to both sides looking like: 15=3x
Divide by 3 to get x by itself and you get x =5
