What is the inverse of the function f(x) = 2x + 1?

First, conceptually understand what an inverse function is, it makes solving it very intuitive.  An inverse function is simply a function which has points (y,x) for every point (x,y) of the parent function.  So you are essentially taking all points of the parent function and switching the x and y coordinates for each.  Those switched coordinates are produced by the "inverse function".

Mathematically then, finding the inverse function is a matter of solving for x and then switching the variable labels.  In this case:

y=2x+1  subtract 1 from both sides

y-1=2x  divide both sides by 2

(y-1)/2=x  now just switch the labels for the variables...

y=(x-1)/2  so

f^-1(x)=(x-1)/2  is the inverse of f(x)=2x+1

A cylindrical swimming pool has a diameter of 16 feet and a height of 3 feet. How many gallons of water can the pool contain? Ro
Sever21 [200]

Answer:

<em>4,524 gallons</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of any cylinder is 

 π (radius)² (height) .

The pool's radius is 1/2 its diameter = 8 ft.  So its volume is

 π (8 ft)² (3 ft)

= π · (64 ft²) · (3 ft)

= π · 192 ft³

= 603.2 ft³ .

(603 ft³) · (7.5 gal / 1 ft³) = 4,524 gallons

Hope this helps :D
