Since f(x) is (strictly) increasing, we know that it is one-to-one and has an inverse f^(-1)(x). Then we can apply the inverse function theorem. Suppose f(a) = b and a = f^(-1)(b). By definition of inverse function, we have

f^(-1)(f(x)) = x

Differentiating with the chain rule gives

(f^(-1))'(f(x)) f'(x) = 1

so that

(f^(-1))'(f(x)) = 1/f'(x)

Let x = a; then

(f^(-1))'(f(a)) = 1/f'(a)

(f^(-1))'(b) = 1/f'(a)

In particular, we take a = 2 and b = 7; then

(f^(-1))'(7) = 1/f'(2) = 1/5

Use the substitution method to sloved the systmem of equaions. Choose the correct order pair
vazorg [7]
X= 12 + y
So then plug in
12 + y + y = 12
2y=0
Y= 0
X + 0 = 12
X= 12
this is prob wrong lol but hopefully it helps

Which of the following is a solution to the equation x - 5/7 = -3/7
podryga [215]

Solve the equation:

          5              3
x  –  ——  =  –  ——
          7              7


           5
Add  ——  to both sides, so you get  x  isolated at the left-hand side:
           7

          5          5               3          5
x  –  ——  +  ——  =  –  ——  +  ——
          7           7              7           7

              3          5
x  =  –  ——  +  ——
              7           7


Now, add those fractions at the right-hand side of the equation:

          – 3 + 5
x  =  —————
               7

          2
x  =  ——     <———    this is the answer (first option:  2/7).
          7


I hope this helps. =)

Explain how solving 2x+16=14 different from solving 2x+16=x+14
vladimir2022 [97]
The difference between 2x+16=14 than 2x+16=x+14 is that you would have to solve x in two different ways like finding the first equation another way than to the second equation ( I think ).
