Answer:

76

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Identify given information and create 2 equations.

c = # of customers g = given items

1/5c = g (Equation for doughnuts)

1/12c = g (Equation for cupcakes)

Step 2: Substitute in for given items

1/5c = 8

1/5c = 3

Step 3: Use PEMDAS to find c in each equation.

1/5c = 8

*5 *5

c = 40

1/12c = 3

*12 *12

c = 36

Step 4: add customers from both equations

40 + 36 = 76

The bakery had 76 customers that day.

Hope this helps =)

Katarina [22]

Answer:

Each student gets 2 1/3

What is the inverse function of f(x) = 25x-3?
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>{f}^{ - 1} (x) =  \frac{x +3 }{25}</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 25x - 3

To find the inverse of f(x) , equate f(x) to y

That's

y = f(x)

We have

y = 25x - 3

Next interchange the terms that's x becomes y and y becomes x

x = 25y - 3

<u>Next solve for y</u>

Move 3 to the other side of the equation

That's

25y = x +  3

<u>Divide both sides by 25</u>

\frac{25y}{25}  =  \frac{x + 3}{25}

We have the final answer as

{f}^{ - 1} (x) =  \frac{x +3 }{25}

Hope this helps you
