From the information given, the original price per pound was increased by $ 0.75
Let the original price be x, so the new price is x + 0.75
Sam bought 3 pounds of apples at new price and it cost him 5.88
so we form an equation:
3 (x + 0.75) = 5.88
3x + 2.25 = 5.88
3x = 5.88 - 2.25
3x = 3.63
x = 3.63 / 3
x = 1.21
Therefore the original price per pound is 1.21 dollars
Answer:
<u>Question 1</u>
The function 
is one-to-one, so it does have an inverse.
The inverse of +6 is -6, so 
Therefore, g(x) is the inverse of f(x).
<u>Question 2</u>
The function 
is one-to-one, so it does have an inverse.
To find the inverse, replace f(x) with y:
Rearrange the equation to make x the subject:
Replace x with 
and y with x:
Therefore, g(x) is the inverse of f(x).
Answer:
184 in²
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
Width, w = 6 inches
Length, l = 10 inches
Height, h = 2 inches
To obtain how much wrapping paper is needed ; we take the surface area of the box
Surface area = 2(lw + lh + wh)
Surface area = 2((6*10) + (6*2) + (10*2))
Surface area = 2(60 + 12 + 20)
Surface area = 2(92)
Surface area = 184 in²
The amount of wrapping paper needed = 184 in²
From the Special Triangle Theorem, the hypotenuse is equal to the side lengtht times the Sqrt(2).
So hypotenuse H = xSqrt(2), x=H/Sqrt(2).
Using numbers, if H = 7, then x = 7/Sqrt(2) = 7Sqrt(2)/2 to rationalize it.
