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

Dora is thinking of a number between 500 and 600
wariber [46]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  500 ÷ 8 = 62 r 4, for example

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to have a remainder of 4, the divisor must be greater than 4, so could be any of 5, 6, 7, 8, 9.

The corresponding numbers could be any of ...

  504 +5n . . . 0 ≤ n ≤ 19

  502 +6n . . . 0 ≤ n ≤ 16

  501 +7n . . . 0 ≤ n ≤ 14

  500 +8n . . . 0 ≤ n ≤ 12

  508 +9n . . . 0 ≤ n ≤ 10

__

For example, with the divisor being 6, and n=13, the number could be ...

  580 = 6·96 + 4

velikii [3]

Answer:

Because we don't know the exact shape of the population distribution since they are not Normally distributed and they are also not very non-Normal

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

Population standard deviation;μ = 200

Population standard deviation; σ = 35

Sample size; n = 30

We are told that the weights are not Normally distributed and they are also not very non-Normal. Therefore it means we don't know the exact shape of the population distribution and as such we can't calculate the probability that a randomly selected passenger weighs more than 200 pounds.
