g(x) as given has no inverse because there are instances of two x values giving the same value of g(x). For instance,
x = -1 ⇒ g(-1) = 4 (-1 + 3)² - 8 = 8
x = -5 ⇒ g(-5) = 4 (-5 + 3)² - 8 = 8
Only a one-to-one function can have an inverse. g(x) is not one-to-one.
However, if we restrict the domain of g(x), we can find an inverse over that domain. Let [tex]g^{-1}(x)[/tex] be the inverse of g(x). Then by definition of inverse function,
[tex]g\left(g^{-1}(x)\right) = 4 \left(g^{-1}(x) + 3\right)^2 - 8 = x[/tex]
Solve for the inverse:
[tex]4 \left(g^{-1}(x) + 3\right)^2 - 8 = x[/tex]
[tex]4 \left(g^{-1}(x) + 3\right)^2 = x + 8[/tex]
[tex]\left(g^{-1}(x) + 3\right)^2 = \dfrac{x + 8}4[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{\left(g^{-1}(x) + 3\right)^2} = \sqrt{\dfrac{x + 8}4}[/tex]
[tex]\left| g^{-1}(x) + 3 \right| = \dfrac{\sqrt{x+8}}2[/tex]
Recall the definition of absolute value:
[tex]|x| = \begin{cases}x & \text{if }x\ge0\\-x&\text{if }x<0\end{cases}[/tex]
This means there are two possible solutions for the inverse of g(x) :
• if [tex]g^{-1}(x) + 3 \ge 0[/tex], then
[tex]g^{-1}(x) + 3 = \dfrac{\sqrt{x+8}}2 \implies g^{-1}(x) = -3+\dfrac{\sqrt{x+8}}2[/tex]
• otherwise, if [tex]g^{-1}(x)+3<0[/tex], then
[tex]-\left(g^{-1}(x) + 3\right) = \dfrac{\sqrt{x+8}}2 \implies g^{-1}(x) = -3-\dfrac{\sqrt{x+8}}2[/tex]
Which we choose as the inverse depends on how we restrict the domain of g(x). For example:
Remember that the inverse must satisfy
[tex]g\left(g^{-1}(x)\right) = x[/tex]
In the first case above, [tex]g^{-1}(x) + 3 \ge 0[/tex], or [tex]g^{-1}(x) \ge -3[/tex]. This suggests that we could restrict the domain of g(x) to be [tex]x \ge -3[/tex].
Then as long as [tex]x \ge -3[/tex], the inverse is
[tex]g^{-1}(x) = -3+\dfrac{\sqrt{x+8}}2[/tex]

8 $130
10 $150
1. How much money will Jeanette have saved after 12 months?
2. How much money will Jeanette have saved after 24 months?
3. In how many months will Jeanette have saved $140? $190?

I'm not that good at explaining but here are my answers:
1- 170
2-340
3- 9 months for $140 and 14 months for $190
4- 10
5-If the x (or months savings) goes up or down, so does the y (or account balance)
6- 70y +20n= 2x
explanation:
1- 150 + 20 = 170
2- 170*2= 340
3-the number always goes up by 20, if it's something like an uneven number, let's say 3, which is after 2, add 10.
4- can't explain this, I used a calculator
5- i don't think I have to explain
6- I don't know, I just took a random equation and "plugged in" the numbers from the equation I was working on.

Hi!
To solve this, we can set up an equation. If L, the length, is 3 less than 2 times W, the width, it would look like this. L = 2w - 3
Now, the perimeter equation is L + L + w + w = 48, so we plug in the L's and get this:
2w - 3 + 2w - 3 + w + w = 48
Now solve, add like terms:
6w - 6 = 48
add 6 to both sides
6w = 54
divide both sides by 6
w = 9
The width is 9, and the length is two times this minus 3, so 2(9) - 3 = 18 - 3 = 15
Therefore your width is 9 and your length is 15
Hope this helps! :D
Multiplying radicals. Simplify
Answers
Answer:
[tex]\sqrt[9]{10}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
When you're multiplying radicals you start by multiplying inside the radical. Break it down so it's easier for you:
1. [tex]\sqrt{15}*\sqrt{6} = \sqrt{90}[/tex] beacause 15 * 6 = 90
2. The next step is to simplify that radical. You simplify by finding factors of that number. The factors of 90 are:
1 * 902* 453 * 305 * 186 * 159 * 10You want to take the biggest factors of that number (yours is 9 * 10). After that you are going to break it down more. What are the factors of 9 and what are the factors of 10? Well the biggest factors of 9 are 3 * 3 and the biggest factors of 10 are 5 * 2, so 10 cannot be broken down anymore because it doesn't have two of the same numbers so 10 is going to stay the same, but 9 has two of the same number (3). What we're left with is [tex]\sqrt[3]{10}[/tex] because the same numbers stay out of the radical and the single number stays inside.
3. We can't forget about the 3 that we left out, so what we're going to do is write [tex]3 *\sqrt[3]{10}[/tex]. When you multiply that out you keep the outside with the outisde which results in the answer being [tex]\sqrt[9]{10}[/tex] because this cannot be simplified anymore.

Answers
Answer:
20.5 years
Step-by-step explanation:
The population is given by the exponential function ...
p = 16000·(1 +0.022)^t
When p = 25000, we can find the value of t by taking logarithms.
log(25000/16000) = t·log(1.022) . . . . . divide by 16000, take the log
t = log(25/16)/log(1.022) ≈ 20.5 . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of t
It will take about 20.5 years for the population to reach 25000.

5) Which function represents the relationship between x and y?
A) y = x + 2
B) y = 2x
C) y = x + 4
D) y = x-2.
Answers
Answer:
A) y=x+2
Step-by-step explanation:
We can see that each time x increase by 2, y also increases by 2. The slope of the line formed by this equation is therefore 1. But we start out with y = 2, even when x=0. That's the definition of the y-intercept: the value of y when x is equal to zero.
The slope-intercept form of a straight line equation is y = mx + b, where m is the slope (1, in this case) and b is the y-intercept (0 in this case).
We have y = 1x + 2, or y = x + 2
