Answer:

30 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean theorem.

a² + b² = c²

18² + 24² = c²

324 + 576 = c²

900 = c²

c = √900

c = 30

Answer: 30 inches

Confirm that f and g are inverses by showing that f(g(x)) = x and g(f(x)) = x.

maks197457 [2]

F(g(x)) = [(-7x-8)/(x-1) - 8} / [(-7x - 8)/(x-1) + 7] =

[(-7x - 8 - 8(x-1)) / (x-1)] / [(-7x - 8 + 7(x-1)) / (x-1)] = (-15x) / (-15) = x.

g(f(x)) = [-7*(x-8)/(x+7) - 8] / [(x-8)/(x+7) - 1] =

[(-7x + 56 -8*(x+7)) / (x+7)] / [(x - 8 - (x + 7)) / (x+7)] = (-15x) / (-15) = x.

So since f(g(x)) = g(f(x)) = x we can conclude that f and g are inverses.

what is the least possible value of the smallest of 99 consecutive positive integers whose sum is a perfect cube

Dmitrij [34]

Let the least possible value of the smallest of 99 cosecutive integers be x and let the number whose cube is the sum be p, then

$\frac{99}{2} (2x+98)=p^3 \\ \\ 99x+4,851=p^3\\ \\ \Rightarrow x=\frac{p^3-4,851}{99}$

By substitution, we have that $p=33$ and $x=314$ .

Therefore, <span>the least possible value of the smallest of 99 consecutive positive integers whose sum is a perfect cube is 314.</span>
