To find the inverse of a function you follow 3 steps.Replace f (x) with x and any x variables with y Rearrange this equation into the form y = x variablesReplace the y with f ^-1 (x) and you have your ans...

3x+2y=3 x-y=-4 First, we want to cancel out either x or y so that all we have left is the one we haven't cancelled and a number. To do this we can add or subtract the two equations, possibly multipl...

First of all, we need to figure out how to tell whether 2 lines are perpendicular. For any equation written in the form 'y=mx+c', the important bit of information we need to answer this question is the va...

Draw the two equations, indicating the point of intersections (whiteboard).If the lines intersect at x=1, then at that point the y values of each equation are equivalent. Therefore, x+ 4 = 2x + c.Inputtin...

Equations: (1) x^2-y=16 and (2) 2y-4=14xRearrange (2) to give y:2y-4=14x(+4) 2y=14x+4(/2) y=7x+2call the new equation (3) y=7x+2Put (3) into (1):x^2-(7x+2)=16(expand) x^2-7x-2=16(-16) x^2-7x-18=0(Factoris...
