Given the function f(x) = 3x, find the value of f−1(81).

1 answer:

4 0

Given the function f (x) = 3x, find the value of f-1 (81).
For this case, the first thing you should do is rewrite the function.
We have then:
y = 3 ^ x
From here, we clear the value of x:
log3 (y) = log3 (3 ^ x)
log3 (y) = x
Then, we rewrite the function again:
f (x) ^ - 1 = log3 (x)
Now, we evaluate the inverse function for x = 81:
f (81) ^ - 1 = log3 (81)
f (x) ^ - 1 = 4
Answer:
the value of f-1 (81) is:
f (x) ^ - 1 = 4

In Speed Study Number 1, we looked at two cars traveling the same distance at different speeds on city streets. Car "A" traveled

MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

b-about 5 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

For an object in uniform circular motion (=moving at constant velocity), the time taken to cover a certain distance is given by:

$t=\frac{d}{v}$

where

d is the distance covered

v is the speed of the object

In this problem we have:

d = 10 miles is the distance covered by both cars

Car A travels at a speed of

$v_A=35 mi/h$

So the time it takes is

$t=\frac{10}{35}=0.286 h \cdot 60 \frac{min}{h}= 17.2 min$

Car B travels at a speed of

$v_B=45 mi/h$

So the time it takes is

$t'=\frac{d}{v_B}=\frac{10}{45}=0.222 h \cdot 60 \frac{min}{h}=13.3 min$

So the difference in time is

$\Delta t = t-t'=17.2 min - 13.3 min \sim 4 min$

So, the closest answer is

b-about 5 minutes

Mario builds a triangular table to fit in the corner of his rectangular bedroom. Is it possible to construct more than one table

Viefleur [7K]

Answer 1 with Explanation

Obtained from the question, Mario builds a triangular table to fit in a corner of the bedroom with the construction measure of 45,90 and 45 degrees which will be possible. In order to construct any physical object, proper tool are needed for accuracy of the object to built more than one of the similar table. With the help of proper instruments and measurement Mario can easily make a triangular table for his room's corner.

Answer 2 with Explanation

As Mario built the triangular table for the corner to fit his bedroom corner. He make use of the special instrument and tool for the measurement. Indeed, it is possible to construct more than one table with the angles 45,45,90 as each of them will be similar in shape but with different values of x, hence it will differ in sizes in terms of length. The length will differ as per the requirement of Mario's needs.

The nth term of a sequence is 2n2 − 1 The nth term of a different sequence is 40 − n2 Show that there is only one number that is

allsm [11]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

nth term of a sequence = 2n² - 1

Therefore, terms of the sequence will be,

1, 7, 17, 31, 49, ........... n terms

nth term of a different sequence = 40 - n²

Therefore, terms of the sequence will be,

39, 36, 31, 24, 15, 4, -9, -24 .......... n terms

Since, there is no negative number in the first sequence,

Therefore, out of 6 positive terms of second sequence only one number (31) is common in both the sequences.
