Which of the following pairs of functions are inverses of each other?

Serggg [28]

Answer:

<em>The answer is (B).</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

A). y = f(x) = 6(x - 2) + 3 ⇔ y = 6x - 12 + 3 ⇔ 6x = y + 9 ⇔ x = $\frac{y+9}{6}$

g(x) = $\frac{x+9}{6}$ is inverse function of f(x) and ≠ $\frac{x+2}{6}$ - 3

<em>B).</em> y = f(x) = $\frac{5x}{4}$ - 3 ⇔ 4y = 5x - 12 ⇔ x = $\frac{4y+12}{5}$

g(x) = $\frac{4(x + 3)}{5}$ is inverse of f(x)

The numerator and the denominator of a fraction are thirteen and fifty, respectively. When a certain number is added to this num

Talja [164]

(13 + x)/(50 - x ) = (2/1)
Cross Multiply
2(50-x) = 1(13 + x)
100 - 2x = 13 + x
add 2x to both sides
100 -2x + 2x = 13 + x + 2x
100 = 13 + 3x
Subtract 13 from both sides
100 - 13 = 13 - 13 + 3x
87 = 3x
divide both sides by 3
29 = x

(13 + 29)/(50-29) = 42/21 = 2 to 1 ratio
