Identify the errors made in finding the inverse of y = x2 + 12x.
x= y2 + 12x
y2 = x - 12x
y2=-11x
y=-11x, for x > 0
Describe the three errors?

Step-by-step explanation:

y = x2 + 12x.

x= y2 + 12x           would also be 12 y

y2 = x - 12x               would be -x

y2=-11x  

y=, for x > 0    negative  square root not possible

Describe the three errors?

use an equation of ratios to determine the amount of gas needed to fill the tank.

    0.2             0.8

  =    

288.75             x

                                                              231 gal

so, 0.2x = (0.8)(288.75 gal), and x = = 1155 gal.

                                                                0.2

it would take 1155 gal. to fill the tank.

the cost would be

1155 gal         $3

* = $3465   (answer)

      1           1 gal
