Answer:

x=-17, y=5. (-17, 5).

Step-by-step -2x-5y=9

3x+11y=4

---------------

3(-2x-5y)=3(9)

2(3x+11y)=2(4)

---------------------

-6x-15y=27

6x+22y=8

-----------------

7y=35

y=35/7

y=5

3x+11(5)=4

3x+55=4

3x=4-55

3x=-51

x=-51/3

x=-17

If f(x)=x^2-1, what is the equation for f^-1(x)

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Let y = x^2 - 1
x^2 = y + 1

x = sqrt(y + 1)

so f^-1(x) = sqrt (x + 1) (answer)

Identify and explain the error.

sergeinik [125]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Strictly speaking, 15% isn't precisely the same as 0.15; 0.15 is the decimal fraction used to calculate 15% of some quantity.

15% of 52 is indeed 7.8. $7.80 is the discount that is to be SUBTRACTED from the regular price ($52). Adding $7.80 to $52 is incorrect.

Also, 52 + 7.8 - 59.8 is incorrect: it's not an equation (but should be one), and we should be subtracting $7.80 from $52.
