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

The number of bacteria in a refrigerated food product is given by N ( T ) = 27 T 2 − 180 T + 100 N(T)=27T2-180T+100, 7 < T &l
NeX [460]

Answer:

N(T(t))=432t^2-374.4t-118.88

The number of Bactria after 5.8 hours is 12242.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of bacteria in a refrigerated food product is given by

N(T)=27T^2-180T+100

where, T is the temperature of the food.

When the food is removed from the refrigerator, then the temperature is given by

T(t)=4t+1.6

We need to find the composite function N(T(t)).

N(T(t))=N(4t+1.6)

N(T(t))=27(4t+1.6)^2-180(4t+1.6)+100

N(T(t))=432t^2+345.6t+69.12-720t-288+100

N(T(t))=432t^2-374.4t-118.88

where N(T(t)) is the number of bacteria after t hours.

Substitute t=5.8 in the above function.

N(T(5.8))=432(5.8)^2-374.4(5.8)-118.88

N(T(5.8))=14532.48-2290.4

N(T(5.8))=12242.08

N(T(5.8))\approx 12242

Therefore, the number of Bactria after 5.8 hours is 12242.

Knox save $56 during the summer break. He spent 3/7 of his savings on a pair of baseball cleats. He spent 5/8 of the remaining m
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

12 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

He spent 3/7 of 56

3/7*56 =24

Take the original amount and subtract what was spent

56-24 =32

He has 32 left

He spent 5/8 of that on a bat

5/8 *32 =20

Take the amount of money he had and subtract what was spent

32-20 = 12

He has 12 left

Put this into slope form x/2 + 2y= 6
Inga [223]

Answer:

y=-1/4x +3

Step-by-step explanation:

x/2 + 2y = 6

Subtract x/2 from both sides

2y=-x/2 +6

Simplify by dividing by 2

y=-1/4x +3
