Unknown g (x) = ax + b and g (g (x)) = 16x - 15. Calculate the value of a and b.
Answers
g(g(x))=16x-15 means that when you subsituted g(x) for x in g(x), you got 16x-15
a(ax+b)+b=16x-15 distribute xa^2+ab+b=16x-15d we look at the x terms therefor xa^2=16x a^2=16 a=-4 or 4 we will find out
look a constant terms ab+b=-15 undistribute b b(a+1)=-15
if a is -4 then b(-4+1)=-15 b(-3)=-15 b=5
if a=4 then b(4+1)=-15 b(5)=-15 b=-3
so g(x)=-4x+5 or g(x)=4x-3
if a=-4, b=5 if a=4, b=-3
Find the inverse of each function1) g (x)= 3+(x-1)^3 4) f (x)=x^3+2 5) f (n)= 5 square root of (-n+1/2)
Answers
to find the inverse 1. replace f(x) or g(x) or f(n) with y 2. switch places of x and y 3. solve for y 4. replace y with f⁻¹(x) or g⁻¹(x) or f⁻¹(n)
1. g(x)=3+(x-1)^3 replace y=3+(x-1)^3 switch x=3+(y-1)^3 solve x=3+(y-1)^3 subtract 3 x-3=(y-1)^3 cube root both sides =y-1 add 1 +1=y switch y with g⁻¹(x) g⁻¹(x)=+1
4. f(x)=x^3+2 replace with y y=x^3+2 switch x and y x=y^3+2 solve for y x=y^3+2 subtract 2 x-2=y^3 cube roo both sides =y replace with f⁻¹(x) f⁻¹(x)=
5. f(n)=5 replace y=5 switch n and y n=5 solve for y n=5 divide both sides by 5 n/5=n= square both sides =-y+1/2 subtract 1/2 from both sides -=-y multiply both sides by -1 -+=y replace with f⁻¹(n) f⁻¹(n)=-+
1. g⁻¹(x)=+1 4. f⁻¹(x)= 5. f⁻¹(n)=-+

Answer:
$44.81
Step-by-step explanation:
43.50 * 0.03 = 1.305
$43.50 + 1.305 = 44.805 = $44.81
Triangle P=27,Q=40,P=33 law of sines round measures to the nearest tenth
Answers
For the law of sines, you would apply it in this particular problem like so: Since P is 27, its angle is 33 and Q's length is 40; you would set it up like this 40/SinQ = 27/Sin33, multiply 40 with Sin33, then it would be 40Sin33, then divide it by 27. The result should be 40Sin33/27 = X
Find the slope between the two points: (9,9) and (12,15)
Answers
The slope formula is . For the two points, . You can pick any of the Y and X from these two points, but only once. = = 2 or = = 2 and both will equal to. The answer for the slope is 2.
Slope = Change in y / Change in x
Between (9, 9) and (12, 15).
We would use the coordinates from the second point minus that from the first point.
