Given f(x)=8x^5, find f^-1(x)
then state whether f^1(x) is a function.

f^-1(x) = (x/8)^(1/5) is a function

Step-by-step explanation:

The inverse of a function is the function reflected across the line y=x. This results in the coordinate points (x,y) of the function becoming (y,x) for the inverse function. Algebraically to find the inverse, switch the x and y locations and solve for y.

y = 8x^5

x = 8y^5

x/8 = y^5

(5)√(x/8) = y

This is a fifth root of (x/7) also written in exponents as y = (x/8)^(1/5).

This is a function. While it appears not to be a function because the middle portion over the origin appears vertical, it is a function because the middle portion over the origin is changing and graphing software shows it has no input with more than one output. Without graphing software you would rule it is not a function.

answer:   expression= p+p*d%

price reduction + sale price = $625

sale price: $p+$p*d%

where d% is the percentage of discount

step-by-step explanation:

original price = p

price went down by $150 price reduction $p*d%

sale price= $ 475

therefore the price before sale is: $625

and the expression that shows the price before sale is: p+p*d%

answer-

the equation that models this pattern is

solution-

a researcher placed a petri dish with 32,000 bacterial cells. one hour after being placed in the vacuum chamber, the number of cells in the petri dish had halved. another hour later, the number of cells had again halved.

this can be represented as exponential decreasing function,

where,

putting the values,

y-intercept means, where x=0, so

the coordinate of this poin will be (0, 32000)

this means when x=0 or at the starting of the research, the number of bacteria cells was 32000.

after 3 hours, number of bacteria cells will be,

the   coordinate of this point will be (3, 4000)
