Answer:

Fraction of fire trucks = \frac{1}{4}

Total number of toy cars = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Fraction of sports car = \frac{2}{3}

Fraction of remaining cars =1-\frac{2}{3}=\frac{3-2}{3} =\frac{1}{3}

So,

Fraction of pick up cars = \frac{1}{4}(\frac{1}{3})=\frac{1}{12}

Therefore,

Fraction of fire trucks = \frac{1}{3}-\frac{1}{12}=\frac{4-1}{12}=\frac{3}{12}=\frac{1}{4}

That is Number of fire trucks = \frac{1}{4} ( Total number of toy cars )

Number of fire trucks = 4

Total number of toy cars = 4(4)=16

Determine algebraically whether the function is even, odd, or neither even nor odd. f as a function of x is equal to x plus quan
Svetach [21]

y = x + 4/x

replace x with -x. Do you get back the original equation after simplifying. if you do, the function is even. replace y with -y AND x with -x. Do you get back the original equation after simplifying. If you do, the function is odd. A function can be either even or odd but not both. Or it can be neither one. Let's first replace x with -x

y = -x + 4/-x = -x - 4/x = -(x + 4/x)

we see that this function is not the same because the original function has been multiplied by -1 . Let's replace y with -y and x with -x

-y = -x + 4/-x

-y = -x - 4/x

-y = -(x + 4/x)

y = x + 4/x

This is the original equation so the function is odd.

Find the inverse of the following function. f(x) =^3squareroot x + 12<br><br> I NEED AN ANSWER NOWW
makkiz [27]

Answer:

(x - 12)²/9

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 3sqr(x) + 12

Make x the subject:

y - 12 = 3sqrt(x)

(y - 12)/3 = sqrt(x)

Square both sides

(y - 12)²/9 = x

Interswitch variables

inverse function is:

(x - 12)²/9

If f(x) = (x + 12)^⅓

Then,

y = (x + 12)⅓

y³ = x + 12

y³ - 12 = x

f inverse:

x³ - 12
