Explanation:
<h3>Part 1.</h3>
The inverse of a function y = f(x) can be found by solving x = f(y) for y.
When we do that here, we find ...
When we compare this to g(x), which we want to be the inverse of f(x), we see that ...
cx -d = bx -a ⇒ b=c, and d=a
We can choose a=d=1 and b=c=2 to make the two functions inverses:
f(x) = (x +1)/2
g(x) = 2x -1
__
<h3>Part 2.</h3>
The inverse of f(x) is g(x) if f(g(x)) = x.
f(g(x)) = ((2x -1) +1)/2 = 2x/1 = x . . . . . g is the inverse of f
__
<h3>Part 3.</h3>
Same as Part 2, but in reverse.
g(f(x)) = 2((x +1)/2) -1 = (x +1) -1 = x
__
<h3>Part 4.</h3>
The attachment is a graph of the two functions and a table of values. The line y=x is the dashed orange line. You will notice that f(x) and g(x) are reflections of each other across that line.
I think the answer would be 4 cakes because they would have bought 6 pies for it to cost $42 and then the extra $40 which will be converted to 4 cakes. So the answer is 4. Hope I helped.
The solution of the system of equations means that following:
1- In case we are dealing with system of equations, the solution would be the point of intersection of the two graphs
2- In case we're dealing with only one equation, the solution would be the points of intersection of the graph with the x-axis
Graph (a):
The graph is for a system of equations (two lines). Therefore, the solution would be the point of intersection of the two lines.
From the graph, we can note that there is only one point of intersection between the two lines (-3,-1). Therefore, the system of equations has only one solution
Graph (b):
The graph is for a system of equations (two lines). Therefore, the solution would be the point of intersection of the two lines.
From the graph, we can note that the two lines are parallel. This means that they will never intersect. Therefore, the system of equations has no solutions
Graph (c):
The graph is for a single line. Therefore, the solution(s) would be the point(s) that make the overall equation equal to zero, i.e. point(s) of intersection with the x-axis.
From the graph, we can note that the line intersects with the x-axis only once at point (2,0). This means that the line has only one solution.
Hope this helps :)
