Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x= number of days
1.5x+6=45
subtract 6 from both sides
1.5x=39
divide both sides by 1.5 to get
x=26
it will take 26 days for the plant to reach 45 inches in height
Answer:
y = (2/5)x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the inverse of a function, we simply exchange the variables x and y and solve for y.
For this function we will write it as such:
y = -5 + (5/2)x
So to find the inverse, we will swap the x and y and solve.
y = -5 + (5/2)x
x = -5 + (5/2)y
x + 5 = (5/2)y
(2/5) * (x + 5) = y
(2/5)x + (2/5)5 = y
(2/5)x + 2 = y
Thus the inverse of the function is:
y = (2/5)x + 2
Cheers.
Answer:
The result is that you eliminate the 7y term and thus can solve for x.
x = -28/3
y = 30/7
Step-by-step explanation:
-20 + 7y = 10
3x + 7y = 2
subtract... elimination method
-20 - 3x = 8
-3x = 28
x = -28/3
-20 + 7y = 10
7y = 30
y = 30/7
