Fun fact
if f(a)=b then f⁻¹(b)=a
so
if f⁻¹(b)=a then f(a)=b
so we find f(x)=27 and the solve for x
f(x)=3x=27
3x=27
divide both sides by 3
x=9
so if f(9)=27 then f⁻¹(27)=9
problem solved
answer is 9
3x + 4y = 16 Write original equation
3x + 4y - 4y = -4y + 16 Subtract 4y from each side
3x = -4y +16 Simplify
3x/3 = -4y/3 + 16/3 Divide each side by three
x = -4y/3 +16/3 Simplify

Sylvia puts in $121.
10% of (multiply) $210.
210= 100 each person plus an additional ten from Leroi
so .10*210 = $21.
Add Sylvia's $100 plus $21 and viola, $121
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
We see that the two terms share an x, so we can pull that out:

Now notice that we have a difference of squares (
). Given a difference of squares,
, this can always be factored into
. We can use this in this case:
.
So, our final factorized form is:
.
