Do you remember when you were learning about
Least Common Multiple (LCM) ? And you were
wondering what on Earth you would ever need it for ?
THIS IS IT !
The amount of time after 8 PM when the lights will flash
together again is the LCM of 20 seconds and 30 seconds.
Do you remember how to find it ?
... When 20 is prime-factored, you have 2 · 2 · 5 .
... When 30 is prime-factored, you have 2 · 3 · 5 .
... So the Least Common Multiple of 20 and 30 is 2 · 2 · 3 · 5 = 60 .
The lighthouses will flash together again in 60 seconds after 8 PM.
That'll be 8:01 PM.
Answer:
Calculate 93% of 29.96.
Your final answer is approximately 27.86
To find the inverse of f(x), you solve for the independent variable, x, and then swap the variable labels. The reason for doing so is easily seen if one remembers what an inverse function really is. The inverse function will produce the opposite coordinate as the parent function. If f(x)=(x,y), f^-1(x)=(y,x), so the inverse function simply creates the inverse of all of the points that exist for f(x)...with that out of the way, let y=f(x), then:
y=1/(9x-2) (I am trying to decipher what you actually meant to type)
Multiply both sides by (9x-2)
y(9x-2)=1 divide both sides by y
9x-2=1/y add 2 to both sides
9x=1/y+2 which is equal to
9x=(1+2y)/y divide both sides by 9
x=(1+2y)/(9y) now switch labels...
y=(1+2x)/(9x)
f^-1(x)=(1+2x)/(9x)
Again, I am not sure that I understood what you meant to type for the equation... strictly as typed you actually have:
y=x/9-2 which can be written as:
y=(x-18)/9 multiply both sides by 9
9y=x-18 add 18 to both sides
9y+18=x then switch labels
y=9x+18
f^-1(x)=9x+18
The denominator must be made clear in this format by using () brackets, otherwise it is anyone's guess...
