ABC Auto Insurance classifies drivers as good, medium, or poor risks. Drivers who apply to them for insurance fall into these three groups in the proportions 30 percent, 50 percent, and 20 percent, respectively. The probability a "good" driver will have an accident is .01, the probability a "medium" risk driver will have an accident is .03, and the probability a "poor" driver will have an accident is .10. The company sells Mr. Brophy an insurance policy and he has an accident. What is the probability Mr. Brophy is: a. A "good" driver? b. A "medium" risk driver? c. A "poor" driver?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a.[tex]P(E_1/A)=0.0789[/tex]

b.[tex]P(E_2/A)=0.395[/tex]\

c.[tex]P(E_3/A)=0.526[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let [tex]E_1,E_2,E_3[/tex] are the events that denotes the good drive, medium drive and poor risk driver.

[tex]P(E_1)=0.30,P(E_2)=0.50,P(E_3)=0.20[/tex]

Let A be the event that denotes an accident.

[tex]P(A/E_1)=0.01[/tex]

[tex]P(A/E_2=0.03[/tex]

[tex]P(A/E_3)=0.10[/tex]

The company sells Mr. Brophyan insurance policy and he has an accident.

a.We have to find the probability Mr.Brophy is a good driver

Bayes theorem,[tex]P(E_i/A)=\frac{P(A/E_i)\cdot P(E_1)}{\sum_{i=1}^{i=n}P(A/E_i)\cdot P(E_i)}[/tex]

We have to find [tex]P(E_1/A)[/tex]

Using the Bayes theorem

[tex]P(E_1/A)=\frac{P(A/E_1)\cdot P(E_1)}{P(E_1)\cdot P(A/E_1)+P(E_2)P(A/E_2)+P(E_3)P(A/E_3)}[/tex]

Substitute the values then we get

[tex]P(E_1/A)=\frac{0.30\times 0.01}{0.01\times 0.30+0.50\times 0.03+0.20\times 0.10}[/tex]

[tex]P(E_1/A)=0.0789[/tex]

b.We have to find the probability Mr.Brophy is a medium driver

[tex]P(E_2/A)=\frac{0.03\times 0.50}{0.038}=0.395[/tex]

c.We have to find the probability Mr.Brophy is a poor driver

[tex]P(E_3/A)=\frac{0.20\times 0.10}{0.038}=0.526[/tex]

Answer 2

Final answer:

The probability that Mr. Brophy is a good, medium, and poor risk driver given he has had an accident is approximately 0.079, 0.395, and 0.526 respectively, as calculated using Bayes' theorem.

Explanation:

Using Bayes' theorem, we can find out the probability that Mr. Brophy is a good, medium, or poor risk driver given that he has had an accident:

Let's denote A as the event of having an accident and Gi, Mi, Pi as the events of Mr. Brophy being a good, medium, or poor risk driver respectively.

P(Gi) = 0.30, P(Mi) = 0.50, P(Pi) = 0.20P(A|Gi) = 0.01, P(A|Mi) = 0.03, P(A|Pi) = 0.10

The total probability of an accident, P(A), is given by:

P(A) = P(A|Gi)P(Gi) + P(A|Mi)P(Mi) + P(A|Pi)P(Pi)

P(A) = (0.01)(0.30) + (0.03)(0.50) + (0.10)(0.20) = 0.003 + 0.015 + 0.02 = 0.038

The probability of Mr. Brophy being a good driver given he had an accident, P(Gi|A), is:

P(Gi|A) = (P(A|Gi)P(Gi)) / P(A) = (0.01)(0.30) / 0.038 ≈ 0.079

The probability of Mr. Brophy being a medium risk driver given he had an accident, P(Mi|A), is:

P(Mi|A) = (P(A|Mi)P(Mi)) / P(A) = (0.03)(0.50) / 0.038 ≈ 0.395

The probability of Mr. Brophy being a poor risk driver given he had an accident, P(Pi|A), is:

P(Pi|A) = (P(A|Pi)P(Pi)) / P(A) = (0.10)(0.20) / 0.038 ≈ 0.526

Answers

Answer:

#1. 408% of 568

We get two equations from this

408% = x

568 = 100%

568/x=100%/408%

Solve and you'll get

408% of 568

=2317.44

2. New - Original = % change

712500 - 950000 = -237500

3. 10 at $1, 7 at $5

4. 2.2 lb. of raisins, 7.8 lb. of nuts

As per the given conditions we have

1. Number which is 408% of 568 is equals to 2317.44 ( nearest hundredth).

2. Total decrease in percentage of the population of Detroit is equals to 25%.

3.Cash box contain bill of $1 is equals to 10 and bill of $5 is equals to 7.

4. Raisins is equals to 2.2 pounds and nuts is equals to 7.8 pounds for the trail mix.

What is equation?

" Equation is defined as the relation between the variables using sign of equality."

What is percentage?

" Percentage is defined as the hundredth part of the given number."

According to the question,

1. 'x' represents the number

As per given condition,

x = 408% of 568  

⇒ [tex]x= \frac{408}{100} (568)[/tex]

⇒ [tex]x = 2317.44[/tex]

Therefore, the number which is 408% of 568 is equals to 2317.44.

2. Total population of Detroit = 950,000

Population after 10 years = 712,500

Decrease in population = 950,000 - 712,500

                                       = 237,500

Total percentage decrease in population = [tex]\frac{237500}{950,000}(100)[/tex]

                                                                     = 25%

Therefore, total  decrease in percentage of the population of Detroit is equals to 25%.

3. 'x' represents the bill of $1

   

  'y' represents the bill of $5

As per the condition given equation we have,

$1x + $5y = $45                  ______(1)

x = y + 3                              ______(2)

Substitute the value of  equation (2) in (1) we get,

[tex]1(y + 3) + 5y = 45\\\\\implies 6y = 45-3\\\\\implies y \frac{42}{6} \\\\\implies y = 7[/tex]

Substitute the value y in (2) we get,

[tex]x= 7 + 3\\\\\implies x =10[/tex]

Therefore , cash box contain bill of $1 is equals to 10 and bill of $5 is equals to 7.

4.  'x' represents the pounds of raisins

  '10- x ' represents the pounds of nuts

Cost of trail mix from raisins and nuts per pound = $6.96

Therefore,

Cost of 10 pounds of  trail mix of raisins and nuts = $(6.96 ×10)

                                                                                  = $69.6

Cost per pound of raisins = $3.45

Cost per pound of nuts = $7.95

Equation formed as per given condition we get,

[tex]3.45x + 7.95(10-x) = 69.6\\\\\implies 3.45x + 79.5 -7.95x = 69.6\\\\\implies -4.5x = 69.6 - 79.5\\\\\implies-4.5x= -9.9\\\\\implies x =\frac{9.9}{4.5}\\ \\\implies x = 2.2 pounds[/tex]

Pounds of raisins  = 2.2pounds

Pounds of nuts = 10 - 2.2

                         = 7.8 pounds

Therefore,  pounds of raisins is equals to 2.2 and pounds of nuts is equals to 7.8 for the trail mix.

Hence, As per the given conditions we have

1. Number which is 408% of 568 is equals to 2317.44 ( nearest hundredth).

2. Total decrease in percentage of the population of Detroit is equals to 25%.

3.Cash box contain bill of $1 is equals to 10 and bill of $5 is equals to 7.

4. Raisins is equals to 2.2 pounds and nuts is equals to 7.8 pounds for the trail mix.

Order the function from the least steep slope to the steepest slope.

Answers

Final answer:

The functions ordered from the least steep slope to the steepest slope are: logarithmic (log(x)), linear (x), quadratic (x²), exponential (eˣ), and cubic (x³).

Explanation:

To compare the steepness of the slopes for different types of functions, we consider the growth or decay rates of each function. The order is determined by the behavior of the functions as x increases.

1. Logarithmic function (log(x)): It grows slowly and approaches infinity as x increases, making it the least steep slope.

2. Linear function (x): It has a constant slope, making it steeper than logarithmic but less steep than quadratic, exponential, and cubic functions.

3. Quadratic function (x²): It increases faster than linear but slower than exponential and cubic functions.

4. Exponential function (eˣ): It grows at an increasing rate, making it steeper than quadratic but less steep than cubic.

5. Cubic function (x³): It has the steepest slope as x increases, making it the most rapidly increasing function.

This order is based on the general behavior of each function type and their rates of growth or decay. Understanding the characteristics of these functions helps in comparing and ordering them in terms of steepness.

Answer:

[tex]x=\frac{1+\sqrt5}{2}[/tex] and  [tex]x=\frac{1-\sqrt5}{2}[/tex]

and b=[tex]\frac{5}{4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a quadratic equation

[tex]x^2-x-1=0[/tex]

We have to solve the equation by completing square and find the value of b.

[tex](x)^2-2\times x\times \frac{1}{2}+(\frac{1}{2})^2-(\frac{1}{2})^2-1=0[/tex]

[tex](x-\frac{1}{2})^2-\frac{1}{4}-1=0[/tex]

[tex](x-\frac{1}{2})^2-\frac{1-4}{4}=0[/tex]

[tex](x-\frac{1}{2})-\frac{5}{4}=0[/tex]

[tex](x-\frac{1}{2})^2-(\frac{\sqrt5}{2})^2=0[/tex]

[tex](x-\frac{1}{2})^2=(\frac{\sqrt5}{2})^2[/tex]

[tex]x-\frac{1}{2}=\frac{\sqrt5}{2}[/tex] and [tex]x-\frac{1}{2}=-\frac{\sqrt5}{2}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{\sqrt5}{2}+\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1+\sqrt5}{2}[/tex]

And [tex]x=\frac{1}{2}-\frac{\sqrt5}{2}=\frac{1-\sqrt5}{2}[/tex]

Therefore,[tex]x=\frac{1+\sqrt5}{2}[/tex] and  [tex]x=\frac{1-\sqrt5}{2}[/tex]

and b=[tex]\frac{5}{4}[/tex]

Final answer:

To complete the square for the equation x²-x-1=0, we add (1/2)² = 1/4 to both sides, resulting in the equivalent equation (x-1/2)² = 5/4, where b is 5/4 or 1.25.

Explanation:

To solve the quadratic equation x²-x-1=0 by completing the square, we need to transform the equation into the form (x+a)² = b. First, we would rearrange the equation to isolate the terms with x: x² - x = 1. The next step is completing the square by adding (1/2 ×-1)² = (1/2)² = 1/4 to both sides of the equation, resulting in x² - x + 1/4 = 1 + 1/4. Therefore, the complete square form is (x-1/2)²= 5/4 and the constant b is 5/4 or 1.25.

Suppose your state lottery has an expected value of
−34%.
If you spend $40 per month on lottery tickets, how much money would you be expected to lose in an average year?
We can expect to lose $
.

Answers

Final answer:

With an expected value of −34% for the state lottery and monthly spending of $40 on tickets, a person can expect to lose $13.60 monthly or $163.20 annually.

Explanation:

If the expected value of playing the state lottery is −34%, and a person spends $40 per month on lottery tickets, we can calculate the expected annual loss as follows:

Firstly, an expected value of −34% means that on average, for every dollar spent, you would expect to lose 34 cents. So for $40 spent in one month, the expected loss would be 34% of $40, which equals $13.60.

Next, we can find the expected loss for a year by multiplying the monthly loss by the number of months in a year:

Monthly expected loss: 0.34 × $40 = $13.60Annual expected loss: $13.60 × 12 months = $163.20

Therefore, on average, you can expect to lose $163.20 per year if you continue spending $40 on lottery tickets every month.

To find the number of small vehicles, we will substitute [tex]y=50[/tex] in the given equation as:

[tex]5x+10(50)=800[/tex]

[tex]5x+500=800[/tex]

[tex]5x+500-500=800-500[/tex]

[tex]5x=300[/tex]

You are driving home from school steadily at 95 km/h for 180 km. It then begins to rain and you slow to 65 km/h. You arrive home after driving 4.5 h. (a) How far is your hometown from school? (b) What was your average speed?

Answers

Answer:

(a) 349.34

(b) 77.63 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance you covered before it rain S =  180 km

Speed v = 95/km

Time taken to cover 180 km = [tex]\frac{S}{v}[/tex]

                                               =  [tex]\frac{180}{95}[/tex]

                                               = 1.89473 hrs.

Total time to cover the distance between school to home T = 4.5 hrs.

Remaining time t = T - t

                             = 4.5 - 1.89473

                             = 2.60527 h.

Velocity after travel 180 km. v' = 65 km/h

Distance traveled in this velocity S' = v'(t)

                                                           = 2.60527 × 65

                                                           = 169.34 km

(a) distance of hometown from school = 169.34 + 180 = 349.34 km.

(b) Your average speed V =  [tex]\frac{S}{T}[/tex]

                                           =  [tex]\frac{349.34}{4.5}[/tex]

                                           = 77.63 km/h

A wall has been built with two pieces of sheetrock, a smaller one and a larger one. The length of the smaller one is stored in the variable small. Similarly, the length of the larger one is stored in the variable large. Write a single expression whose value is the length of this wall.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is: small+large.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the variable of the smaller sheetrock is stored in small:

var small.

And the variable of the larger sheetrock is stored in large:

var large.

The length of the wall will be the sum of the two pieces of sheetrock:

small+large

For example:

var small = 5;

var large = 10;

small+large = 5 + 10 = 15 is the length of the wall.

Final answer:

To calculate the total length of a wall made with two sheets of sheetrock, use the expression 'small + large'. The correct unit for measuring large objects like walls is often feet, and including units is essential for clarity in measurements.

Explanation:

The question asks for an expression to calculate the total length of a wall built with two pieces of sheetrock with lengths stored in the variables small and large. Since the total length of the wall will be the sum of the lengths of the two pieces of sheetrock, the expression you would write is small + large. This will give you the length of the entire wall when you substitute in the numerical values for the lengths represented by the two variables.

When measuring large objects like walls, the appropriate unit of measure is often feet, as inches would be too small and miles or kilometers would be excessively large. It's important to always include units in your measurements to avoid confusion and to ensure that the measurements are useful for practical applications, such as buying fabric or building materials.

A teacher divides the students into three groups for project each group has the same number of students in the total of number students prime or composite

Answers

Answer:

The total number of students is composite

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- A teacher divides the students into three groups for project

- Each group has the same number of students

- We need to know the total number of students is prime number or

 composite number

∵ The least number of any group is 2 students

∵ There are three groups

∵ The number of students in each group equal

∴ The least number of the students is 6

∵ Any number of students must be multiple of 3 because it will

  divide by 3

∵ Any prime number has only two factors 1 and itself

∵ Any multiple of 3 (except 3) has more than two factors

∵ The class can not be 3 students because when divided to 3

   groups each group will have 1 students and the least number of

   students in a group is 2

The number of the students in the class must be composite

Final answer:

The question deals with evenly dividing students into three groups for a group assignment, indicating that the total number of students is composite, as it is divisible by three.

Explanation:

The question involves dividing a number of students into groups for a group assignment. A key concept here is understanding whether the total number of students is a prime or composite number.

If the students were evenly divided into three groups, this implies that the total number must be divisible by three, making it a composite number.

Examples of group work dynamics include cases where students divide work equally but one ends up doing the most of it, evenly distributing tasks, or each taking on different aspects of a complex problem.

Answer:

The coordinates of point H' are (-2 , 0) ⇒ answer B

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise the vertical stretch

- A vertical stretching is the stretching of the graph away from the  

 x-axis  

- If k > 1, then the graph of y = k • f(x) is the graph of f(x) vertically

 stretched by multiplying each of its y-coordinates by k

* Lets solve the problem

- Square EFGH stretches vertically by a factor of 2.5 to create

 rectangle E′F′G′H′

k = 2.5

- The square stretches with respect to the x-axis

∴ The square stretches vertically

∴ The y-coordinates of each vertex of the square EFGH are

  multiplied by 2.5 to get the vertices of the rectangle E'F'G'H'

∵ Point H located at (-2 , 0)

∵ The image of point (x , y) after stretched vertically by k is (x , ky)

∴ Point H' located at (-2 , 0 × 2.5) ⇒ (-2 , 0)

∴ The coordinates of point H' are (-2 , 0)

Using completing the squares, we have

[tex]f(x)=x^2+2x+1-1-3[/tex]        [∵ [tex](x+1)^2=x^2+2x+1[/tex]]

[tex]f(x)=(x+1)^2-4[/tex]      (1)

Comparing (1) to the standard vertex form [tex]f(x)=(x-h)^2+k[/tex] , the vertex of function is at (h,k)=(-1,-4)

For x-intercept, put f(x)=0 in (1), we get

[tex]0=(x+1)^2-4\\\\\Rightarrow\ (x+1)^2=4[/tex]    

Square root on both sides, we get

[tex]x+1=\pm2\\\\x+1=-2\ or\ \ x+1=2\\\\=x=-3\ \ or\ x=1[/tex]

∴ x intercepts : x= (-3,0) and (1,0)

Jessica wants to buy a new team jacket that costs $35. If Jessica saves $5 a week for 4 weeks and $4 a week for 3 weeks, will she have enough money to buy the team jacket? Explain

Answers

No, Jessica he will not have enough to buy the jacket. She would have saved $32, not $35.

What is a system of equations?

A system of equations is two or more equations that can be solved to get a unique solution. the power of the equation must be in one degree.

Lets x represent the number of weeks it will take to save enough money. If she saves $11 each week, then in x weeks she will save 11x dollars.

Also, Add this to the 107 she has already saved, and at the end of 11 weeks she will have 11x + 107 dollars.

We want the amount saved to be equal to the price of the bike, so our equation;

11x + 107 = 173

Now we solve the equation.

Subtract 107 from both sides ;

11x = 66

Divide both sides by 11;

x = 6

No, Jessica he will not have enough to buy the jacket. She would have saved $32, not $35.

A stand-up comedian uses algebra in some jokes, including one about a telephone recording that announces "You have just reached a pure imaginary number. Please multiply by i and dial again." Explain the joke.

Answers

Answer:

i * i = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

W hen you multiply an imaginary number or i number by another imaginary pure number, the answer is going to be a negative number, due that i *i= -1. The joke is funny because if you do what the recording is saying there you won't have a pure imaginary number and if you dial again, the same would happen again and again.

Answer:

When we work with imaginary numbers, we have that

i = √(-1)

then, we have that i*i = √(-1)*√(-1) = -1

An imaginary number is a number of form A + B*i, where A and B are real numbers.

Now, a purely imaginary number is a number of the form B*i, where B is a real number.

Then, if we multiply this number by i, we have that:

B*i*i = B*(-1) = -B

now we have a real number.

The joke is that now you can "reach" a real number.

The scale on a map of Virginia shows that 1 inch represents 15 miles. The actual distance from Richmond, VA, to Washington, D.C., is 110 miles. On the map, how many inches are between the two cities? Enter your answer as a mixed number with the fraction in simplest form.

The distance on the map is __ in.

Answers

Answer:

The answer to your question is: 7 1/3 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

1 inch --------- 15 miles

Distance from Richmond to Washington = 110 miles

Use a rule of three to solve it

        1 inch ----------------- 15 miles

        x    --------------------  110 miles

x = 110x 1 /15

x = 110 / 15   simplify            dividing by 5

x = 22/3

Convert it to a mix number

22/3 = 7 1/3 inches

Final answer:

On the map, 7.6 inches are between the two cities

Explanation:

To find out how many inches are between two cities on a map given the scale and the actual distance. The scale here is that 1 inch represents 15 miles. Therefore, for an actual distance of 110 miles, we simply divide the actual distance by the scale factor to obtain the distance on the map.

By setting up the proportion:
1 inch / 15 miles = x inches / 110 miles, we cross-multiply and solve for x,
which is the number of inches on the map. The calculation would be:
(1 inch / 15 miles) * 110 miles = 110 inches / 15 = 7 3/5 inches or 7.6 inches.

y = [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

A television with a 5:4 screen shows an image with a ratio of 20:12 which creates a letter boxed image. What percent of the screen's area is occupied by the image?

Answer: d. 75% of the screen is occupied by the image  

Step-by-step explanation:

First we have to find a relation between image area and screen area.

Image area is the product of image dimensions.

Screen area is the product of screen dimensions.

We have to divide the major image dimension between the major screen dimension

Major image dim/Major screen dim = 20/5 = 4

Now we have to multiply this relation by the minor screen dimension

Minor screen dim x 4 = 4 x 4 = 16

Then we have found 5/4 = 20/16

Now we can calculate what percent of the screen area is occupied by the image area.

Major image dim x minor image dim/Major screen dim x minor screen dim

Since major image dim = major screen dim, we have:

Minor image dim/Minor screen dim = 12/16 = 0.75 = 75% of the screen

Answer: d. 75% of the screen is occupied by the image

Answer:

  14.  61.2 mi N, 49.8 mi W

  15.  7.3 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

14. The components in the different directions are found using the sine and cosine functions. (Draw yourself a diagram to help see this.)

 north distance = (78.9 mi)cos(39°10') ≈ 61.2 mi

 west distance = (78.9 mi)sin(39°10') ≈ 49.8 mi

__

15. Let d represent the distance from the observation point to the door. Then ...

  8.8 ft = d·tan(56°)

  x = d·tan(51°)

Dividing the second of these equations by the first cancels d and gives ...

  x/(8.8 ft) = tan(51°)/tan(56°)

Multiplying by 8.8 ft, we can find x:

  x = (8.8 ft)(tan(51°)/tan(56°)) ≈ 7.3 ft

A test consists of 10 true/false questions. To pass the test a student must answer at least 88 questions correctly. If a student guesses on each question, what is the probability that the student will pass the test? Round to three decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

The probability that the student is going to pass the test is 0.0545

Step-by-step explanation:

The variable that says the number of correct questions follows a Binomial distribution, because there are n identical and independent events with a probability p of success and a probability 1-p of fail. So, the probability of get x questions correct is:

[tex]P(x)=\frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!} *p^{x} *(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

Where n is equal to 10 questions and p is the probability of get a correct answers, so p is equal to 1/2

Then, if the student pass the test with at least 8 questions correct, the probability P of that is:

P = P(8) + P(9) + P(10)

[tex]P=(\frac{10!}{8!(10-8)!}*0.5^{8}*(0.5)^{10-8})+(\frac{10!}{9!(10-9)!} *0.5^{9} *(0.5)^{10-9})+(\frac{10!}{10!(10-10)!} *0.5^{10} *(0.5)^{10-10})[/tex]

P = 0.0439 + 0.0097 + 0.0009

P = 0.0545

Have to bake a lot of brownies to sell! You have plenty of flour, cocoa, milk, and oil, but you only have 6 1/2 sticks of butter. You need to know how many batches of brownies you can bake, based on your limited amount of butter. You can cook partial batches in order to use up every bit of butter, which will also help you to bake the most brownies possible. Each batch needs 3/4 of a stick of butter.

Answers

Answer: 8 + 2/3 batches of brownies you can bake.

Step-by-step explanation:

6 1/2 butter  = 6 + 1/2 = (2·6 + 1)/2 = 13/2 sticks of butter, we have this

Since we have 13/2 sticks of butter and each batch of brownies needs 3/4 of a stick of butter, we have to divide the amount of butter we have between the amount of butter we use to bake a batch of brownies.

13/2 butter ÷ 3/4 butter/batch = 13·4/2·3 batches = 52/6 batches = 8 + 2/3 batches

Answer: 8 + 2/3 batches of brownies you can bake.

[tex]\textit{\textbf{Spymore}}[/tex]  

By dividing the total amount of butter (13/2 sticks) by the amount required per batch (3/4 stick), we find that it's possible to make 8 full batches of brownies with 6 1/2 sticks of butter, with some butter left over.

To determine how many batches of brownies you can bake with 6 1/2 sticks of butter, you have to divide the total amount of butter you have by the amount required for one batch. Since each batch requires 3/4 stick of butter, you calculate as follows:

Total sticks of butter: 6 1/2
Required per batch: 3/4

Now convert 6 1/2 to an improper fraction: 6 1/2 = 13/2.

Next, calculate the number of batches by dividing the total butter by the butter per batch:

Number of batches = (13/2) / (3/4) = (13/2) * (4/3) = 52/6

When you simplify 52/6, you get 8 with a remainder, meaning you can make 8 full batches of brownies, and you will have some butter left over.

if (fx)=5x, what is f^-1(x)

Answers

Answer:

x/5

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the inverse function you need to leave the x alone and then switch variables ( f(x) = y)

f(x) = 5x

y = 5x

y/5 = x

Now that x is alone you switch the x for y and the y for x and you get:

x/5 = y

And this new y is the inverse function of f(x) ( f^-1(x))

f^-1(x) = x/5
