To determine the inverse of f(x)=2x+5, first express it without using f(x). Set y = 2x + 5, then exchange x and y and solve for y. Subtract 5 from both sides to get x - 5 = 2y, and divide through by 2 to find y = (x-5)/2. Therefore, f-1(x) is (x-5)/2. To find f-1(8), substitute 8 for x, resulting in (8-5)/2 = 3/2.

Which terms could be used as the first term of the expression below to create a polynomial written in standard form? Select five
babunello [11817]

Answer:

(A)\dfrac{5s^7}{6}\\(B)s^5\\(E)-6rs^5 \\(F)\dfrac{4r}{5^6}

Step-by-step explanation:

A polynomial is in its standard form when arranged in descending order based on the variable involved.

Looking at the provided polynomial

+ 8r^2s^4 - 3r^3s^3

  • s is presented in descending powers
  • r is in ascending order

Thus, the first term of the polynomial should meet these criteria:

  • Power of r is less than 2
  • Power of s is greater than 4.

The following meets these requirements:

(A)\dfrac{5s^7}{6}\\(B)s^5\\(E)-6rs^5 \\(F)\dfrac{4r}{5^6}

Ana drew a map of the Panama Canal. In the scale Ana used for the map, 4 centimeters represents 20 kilometers. The actual length
lawyer [12517]

Answer:

According to the map, the length of the canal is 16.4 centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the real length of Panama Canal = 20 kilometers

and the canal's length on the map = 4 centimeters

Then, the scale factor is \frac{\text{Length of canal on map}}{\text{Actual length of canal}}

= \frac{4}{20}

= \frac{1}{5}

If the actual length of the Panama Canal = 82 kilometers

The length of the canal on the map = Actual length × Scale factor

= 82\times \frac{1}{5}

= 16.4 centimeters

So, the canal's length on the map is 16.4 centimeters.

David wants to rent a bicycle for a couple of hours to explore the city. The price of the bike rental, (P)(P)left parenthesis, P
babunello [11817]

Answer:

The charge for the first three hours is $4 per hour.

Subsequently, the rate decreases to $2 per hour until the sixth hour.

Between the sixth and tenth hours, the cost is reduced further to $1 per hour.

The maximum charge for renting the bike is $30.

Step-by-step explanation:

The incline on the graph indicates the hourly rate for the bike rental.

During the initial three hours, the rental fee rises by $4 for each hour.

From the third to the sixth hour, the graph’s slope indicates a rate of $2 per hour for the rental.

The charge drops to $1 per hour from the sixth to the tenth hour.

After the tenth hour, the price, P, remains constant. The highest fee for the bike rental is $30.

What is the maximum number of times two planes can intersect? What is the minimum number of times they can intersect?
Inessa [12570]
The least number of times that two planes can cross is zero, since parallel planes do not intersect. A good example would be a floor and a ceiling, which run parallel, hence they do not meet. Conversely, if two planes occupy the same space, they can intersect at infinitely many points, as could happen with a line within that plane.
