Answer:

900 g

Step-by-step explanation:

let e be extension and w be weight

given e varies directly as w then the equation relating them is

e = kw ← k is the constant of variation

to find k use the condition w = 150 , e = 2.9 , then

2.9 = 150k ( divide both sides by 150 )

\frac{2.9}{150} = k , that is

k = \frac{29}{1500}

e = \frac{29}{1500} w ← equation of variation

when e = 17.4 , then

17.4 = \frac{29}{1500} w ( multiply both sides by 1500 )

26100 = 29w ( divide both sides by 29 )

900 = w

Place the steps for finding f'(X) in the correct order.<br><br><br> Plz help <br> Thank you!
SashulF [63]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function is ,

=> f(x) = 4x + 7.

Replace f(x) with y ,

=> y = 4x + 7

For finding the inverse , interchange x and y ,

=> x = 4y + 7

Now solve for y ,

=> 4y = x - 7

=> y = x-7/4

Replace y with f-¹(x) ,

=> f-¹(x) = (x-7)/4

These are the required steps .
