Which of the following is true for the relation f(x)=3x^2+5? a) both the equation and its inverse are functions. b) only the equation is a function. c) only the inverse is a function d) neither the equation nor its inverse is a function.

Both the equation and its inverse are functions.

In order to tell this, we first need to look at the inverse of the function. You can find the inverse of any function by switching the f(x) value and the x value. Then solve for the new f(x) value. The result will be your inverse function. Below is the step-by-step process for solving this one.

f(x) = 3x^2 + 5 ----> Switch the f(x) and x values

x = 3f(x)^2 + 5 ----> Subtract 5 from both sides

x - 5 = 3f(x)^2 ----> Divide both sides by 3

= f(x)^2 ----> Take the square root of both sides.

= f(x) ----> Change the order for formatting purposes.

f(x) =

Now you have the inverse function. You'll notice with both cases, there is only one output for each input. No matter what we put in for x in both cases, there will be only one f(x) value that comes out. This is the definition of a function and thus proves both the original and new inverse are both functions.

according to the triangle sum theorem, all the angles in a triangle must add up to 180 degrees. if we know one angle is already 90, we do 180-90=90. the other 2 angles must add up to 90, exactly.
