f(x)=ax+b/2 then f^-1 (x-1) =2x-5/2 find a and b​

Answers

Answer 1

From the given inverse function, we have

[tex]f^{-1}(x-1) = 2x - \dfrac52 \\\\ \implies f^{-1}(x) = f^{-1}((x+1)-1) = 2(x+1) - \dfrac52 = 2x-\dfrac12[/tex]

By definition of inverse function,

[tex]f\left(f^{-1}(x)\right) = x[/tex]

so that

[tex]f\left(2x-\dfrac12\right) = x[/tex]

[tex]a\left(2x-\dfrac12\right) + \dfrac b2 = x[/tex]

[tex]2ax - \dfrac a2 + \dfrac b2 = x[/tex]

[tex]\implies\begin{cases}2a=1 \\\\ -\dfrac a2+\dfrac b2 = 0\end{cases}[/tex]

[tex]\implies \boxed{a=\dfrac12}[/tex]

[tex]\implies \dfrac b2 = \dfrac a2 \implies \boxed{b=\dfrac12}[/tex]

Function: y=x2+5x−7


Vertex: ( , )


Solutions: ( , ) and ( , )

Answers

Answer:

vertex : (-5/2, -53/4)

solutions: (-(5-sqrt53)/2, 0) (-(5+sqrt53)/2, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

1.The vertex of the function is (-5/2, -53/4).

2.We have two solutions:

x = (-5 + √53) / 2 ≈ 0.73

x = (-5 - √53) / 2 ≈ -5.73

To find the vertex and solutions of the function y = x^2 + 5x - 7, we can use the formula for the vertex and the quadratic formula for finding solutions.

1. Vertex:

The vertex of a quadratic function in the form y = ax^2 + bx + c can be found using the formula:

x = -b / (2a)

y = f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c

Given: a = 1, b = 5, c = -7

x = -5 / (2 * 1) = -5 / 2

Now, substitute the value of x into the equation to find y:

y = (-5/2)^2 + 5 * (-5/2) - 7

y = 25/4 - 25/2 - 7

y = 25/4 - 50/4 - 7

y = (25 - 50 - 28) / 4

y = -53 / 4

So, the vertex of the function is (-5/2, -53/4).

2. Solutions (or roots or x-intercepts):

To find the solutions (x-intercepts) of the function, we can use the quadratic formula:

x = (-b ± √(b^2 - 4ac)) / 2a

Given: a = 1, b = 5, c = -7

x = (-5 ± √(5^2 - 4 * 1 * -7)) / 2 * 1

x = (-5 ± √(25 + 28)) / 2

x = (-5 ± √53) / 2

Now, we have two solutions:

x = (-5 + √53) / 2 ≈ 0.73

x = (-5 - √53) / 2 ≈ -5.73

So, the solutions of the function are approximately x ≈ 0.73 and x ≈ -5.73.

Answer: it is correct i got it from edmentum

Step-by-step explanation:

Karsten is preparing his will. He wants to leave the same amount of money to his two daughters. His elder daughter is careful with money, but the younger daughter spends it carelessly, so he decides to give them the money in different ways. How much must his estate pay his younger daughter each month over 20 years, so that the accumulated present value will be equal to the $50000 cash his elder daughter will receive upon his death? Assume that the younger daughters inheritance earns 6%/a compounded monthly

Answers

The amount that Karsten's estate should pay his younger daughter each month over 20 years so that the accumulated present value will be equal to $50,000 is $358.22.

How to calculate periodic payments?

The monthly payments out of the present value of $50,000 can be computed using an online finance calculator.

The periodic payment represents the equal amount that can be paid to the daughter monthly so that it equals the PV of $50,000 of the estate share.

Data and Calculations:

N (# of periods) = 240

I/Y (Interest per year) = 6%

PV (Present Value) = $50,000

FV (Future Value) = $0

Results:

Monthly Payment = $358.22

Sum of all periodic payments = $85,971.73 ($358.22 x 2400

Total Interest = $35,971.73

Thus, Karsten's younger daughter can be paid $358.22 to equal the accumulated present value of $50,000.

A piecewise function g(x) is defined by g of x is equal to the piecewise function of x cubed minus 9 times x for x is less than 3 and negative log base 4 of the quantity x minus 2 end quantity plus 2 for x is greater than or equal to 3

Part A: Graph the piecewise function g(x) and determine the domain. (5 points)

Part B: Determine the x-intercepts of g(x). Show all necessary calculations. (5 points)

Part C: Describe the interval(s) in which the graph of g(x) is positive. (5 points)

Answers

Answer:

A)  See attached for graph.

B)  (-3, 0)  (0, 0)  (18, 0)

C)   (-3, 0) ∪ [3, 18)

Step-by-step explanation:

Piecewise functions have multiple pieces of curves/lines where each piece corresponds to its definition over an interval.

Given piecewise function:

[tex]g(x)=\begin{cases}x^3-9x \quad \quad \quad \quad \quad \textsf{if }x < 3\\-\log_4(x-2)+2 \quad \textsf{if }x\geq 3\end{cases}[/tex]

Therefore, the function has two definitions:

[tex]g(x)=x^3-9x \quad \textsf{when x is less than 3}[/tex][tex]g(x)=-\log_4(x-2)+2 \quad \textsf{when x is more than or equal to 3}[/tex]

Part A

When graphing piecewise functions:

Use an open circle where the value of x is not included in the interval.Use a closed circle where the value of x is included in the interval.Use an arrow to show that the function continues indefinitely.

First piece of function

Substitute the endpoint of the interval into the corresponding function:

[tex]\implies g(3)=(3)^3-9(3)=0 \implies (3,0)[/tex]

Place an open circle at point (3, 0).

Graph the cubic curve, adding an arrow at the other endpoint to show it continues indefinitely as x → -∞.

Second piece of function

Substitute the endpoint of the interval into the corresponding function:

[tex]\implies g(3)=-\log_4(3-2)+2=2 \implies (3,2)[/tex]

Place an closed circle at point (3, 2).

Graph the curve, adding an arrow at the other endpoint to show it continues indefinitely as x → ∞.

See attached for graph.

Part B

The x-intercepts are where the curve crosses the x-axis, so when y = 0.

Set the first piece of the function to zero and solve for x:

[tex]\begin{aligned}g(x) & = 0\\\implies x^3-9x & = 0\\x(x^2-9) & = 0\\\\\implies x^2-9 & = 0 \quad \quad \quad \implies x=0\\x^2 & = 9\\\ x & = \pm 3\end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore, as x < 3, the x-intercepts are (-3, 0) and (0, 0) for the first piece.

Set the second piece to zero and solve for x:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\implies g(x) & =0\\-\log_4(x-2)+2 & =0\\\log_4(x-2) & =2\end{aligned}[/tex]

[tex]\textsf{Apply log law}: \quad \log_ab=c \iff a^c=b[/tex]

[tex]\begin{aligned}\implies 4^2&=x-2\\x & = 16+2\\x & = 18 \end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore, the x-intercept for the second piece is (18, 0).

So the x-intercepts for the piecewise function are (-3, 0), (0, 0) and (18, 0).

Part C

From the graph from part A, and the calculated x-intercepts from part B, the function g(x) is positive between the intervals -3 < x < 0 and 3 ≤ x < 18.

Interval notation:  (-3, 0) ∪ [3, 18)

Round your answers to the nearest cent, as appropriate.) The total interest paid on the nonsubsidized loan is $

Answers

Katrina would pay less amount of interest on the nonsubsidized student loan

The total interest paid on the nonsubsidized loan is $3,860.80

What is monthly compounding?

Monthly compounding means that the interest is computed and added to existing outstanding loan balance at the end of each month.

In this case, the loan would be repaid monthly but the first monthly payment would occur after 2 years of taking out the loans.

In other words, for the first 2 years, the interest would increase the balances with no corresponding reductions by a way of loan repayment, note that interest to be added monthly, as a result, we can compute outstanding balance 2 years for both loans using the future value formula of a single cash flow shown below:

FV=PV*(1+r/n)^(n*t)

FV=balance after 2 years=unknown

PV=loan amount

r=annual interest rate

n=number of times interest is compounded annually=12

t=number of years before repayments commence=2

Non-subsidized loan:

FV=$29,000*(1+2.5%/12)^(12*2)

FV=$30,485.28

Subsidized loan:

FV=$29,000*(1+4.5%/12)^(12*2)

FV=$31,725.71

Having determined the loan balances after 2 years, we can now compute the monthly payments that would be made in the remaining 6 years using the present value formula of an ordinary annuity because monthly  payments would occur at the end of each month:

PV=PMT*(1-(1+r)^-N/r

PV=balance of loan after 2 years

PMT=monthly payment=unknown

r=monthly interest rate=annual interest rate/12

N=number of monthly payments in 6 years=12*6=72

Non-subsidized loan:

$30,485.28=PMT*(1-(1+2.5%/12)^-72/(2.5%/12)

PMT=$456.40

total monthly payments=$456.40*72

total monthly payments=$32,860.80

Interest= total monthly payments-loan

interest=$32,860.80-$29,000

interest=$3,860.80

Subsidized loan:

$31,725.71 =PMT*(1-(1+4.5%/12)^-72/(4.5%/12)

PMT=$503.61

total monthly payments=$503.61 *72

total monthly payments=$36,259.92

Find the volume of a cylinder that has a height of 6.5 feet and a radius of 1.3 feet.

Answers

Answer:

34.51ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the volume of a cylinder is :

V = π r² h

Here,

r ⇒ radius ⇒ 1.3ft

h ⇒ height ⇒ 6.5ft

Let us find now.

V = π r² h

V = π × ( 1.3 )² × 6.5

V = π × 1.69 × 6.5

V = 34.51ft³

Answers

Answer:

40 liters of 30% solution.

20 liters of 60% solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = amount of 30% solution.

Let y = amount of 60% solution.

Equation of amounts of solutions.

x + y = 60

Equation of amounts of alcohol in the solutions.

0.3x + 0.6y = 0.4 × 60

x = 60 - y

0.3(60 - y) + 0.6y = 24

18 - 0.3y + 0.6y = 24

0.3y = 6

y = 20

x + y = 60

x + 20 = 60

x = 40

Answer:

40 liters of 30% solution.

20 liters of 60% solution.

An equation is a mathematical statement that is made up of two expressions connected by an equal sign.

The number of liters of the 30% solution and the number of liters of the 60% solution to mix to make the 40% solution is 40 liters and 20 liters.

What is an equation?

An equation is a mathematical statement that is made up of two expressions connected by an equal sign.

Example:

2x + 4 = 7 is an equation.

We have,

Let 30% solution = m

Let 60% solution = n

Now,

A scientist needs 60 liters of a 40% solution of alcohol.

He has a 30% solution and a 60% solution available.

This means,

m + n = 60 _____(1)

30% of m + 60% of n = 40% of 60

0.30m + 0.60n = 0.40 x 60

0.30m + 0.60n = 24 ____(2)

From (1) and (2) we get,

m + n = 60

m = 60 - n _____(3)

Putting (3) in (2) we get,

0.30m + 0.60n = 24

0.30(60 - n) + 0.60n = 24

18 - 0.30n + 0.60n = 24

18 + 0.30n = 24

0.30n = 24 - 18

0.30n = 6

n = 6/0.30

n = 20

Putting n = 20 in (3) we get,

m = 60 - 20

m = 40

Now,

The number of liters of the 30% solution is 40.

The number of liters of the 60% solution is 20.

Thus,

The number of liters of the 30% solution and the number of liters of the 60% solution to mix to make the 40% solution is 40 liters and 20 liters.

Find the height (in meters) of a storage tank in the shape of a right circular cylinder that has a circumference measuring 4 m and a volume measuring 36 m3.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]h = \bf 28.3 \space\ m[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

• We are given:

○ Volume = 36 m³,

○ Circumference = 4 m

• Let's find the radius of the cylinder first:

[tex]\mathrm{Circumference} = 2 \pi r[/tex]

Solving for [tex]r[/tex] :

⇒ [tex]4 = 2 \pi r[/tex]

⇒ [tex]r = \frac{4}{2\pi}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]r = \bf \frac{2}{\pi}[/tex]

• Now we can calculate the height using the formula for volume of a cylinder:

[tex]\mathrm{Volume} = \boxed{\pi r^2 h}[/tex]

Solving for [tex]h[/tex] :

⇒ [tex]36 = \pi \cdot (\frac{2}{\pi}) ^2 \cdot h[/tex]

⇒ [tex]h = \frac{36 \pi^2}{4 \pi}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]h = 9 \pi[/tex]

⇒ [tex]h = \bf 28.3 \space\ m[/tex]

Answer:

9π m ≈ 28.27m

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a right cylinder is given by the formula

πr²h where r is the radius of the base of the cylinder(which is a circle), h is the height of the cylinder

Circumference of base of cylinder is given by the formula 2πr

Given,

2πr = 4m

r = 2/π m

Volume given as 36 m³

So πr²h = 36
π (2/π)² h = 36

π x 4/π² h = 36

(4/π) h = 36

h = 36π/4 = 9π ≈ 28.27m
