Answer:

  4

Step-by-step explanation:

If the two numbers are 'a' and 'b', the sum of their reciprocals is ...

  \dfrac{1}{a}+\dfrac{1}{b}=\dfrac{a+b}{ab}=\dfrac{4ab}{ab}=\boxed{4}

The sum of their reciprocals is 4.

for a special concert by a popular band, the concert hall owner decided to charge $20 per ticket for the first "r" rows and $15
Alecsey [184]
R = 16 according to the problem, so the total amount of income will be:
$20*16 + $15*(40 - 16)
= $320 + <span>$15*(24)
= </span>$320 + <span>$360
= $680
that is the income, but the expenses are $275 so the total revenue is the subtraction of those two
total revenue = $680 - $275
= $405</span>

Find the inverse function for y=3/4+x
Sonja [21]

The inverse of this function is y = x - \frac{3}{4}


You can find the inverse of any function by switching the x and y values and then solving for the new y value. Once you've done that, what will be left over is the inverse function.


y = \frac{3}{4} + x ----> Swap x and y

x = \frac{3}{4} + x -----> Subtract 3/4 from both sides.

x - \frac{3}{4} = y ----> rearrange to appropriate order

y = x - \frac{3}{4}


And that is your inverse function.
