| Question 145511:  1)Find the inverse of the function f(x)=8x+16
 This is my answer and I am not sure if it is correct.
 x-16
 ------ = y
 8
 2) write y=x^5 in log form
 my answer log  y=5
 x
 3) solve the system of linear equation:2x+3y=-5 and y=2x+9
 my answer
 2x+3(2x+9)=-5
 2x+6x+27=-5
 8x+27=-5
 8x=-32
 x=-32/-8
 x=-4
 
 y=2(-4)+9
 y=-8+9=1
 (-4,1)

You can put this solution on YOUR website! 1)Find the inverse of the function f(x)=8x+16 This is my answer and I am not sure if it is correct.
 x-16
 ------ = y
 8
 -------
 Interchange x and y to get:
 (y - 16)/8 = x
 y-16 = 8x
 y = 8x + 16
 That is the inverse.
 ------------------------
 
 2) write y=x^5 in log form
 logx (y) =5
 
 ------------------------
 3) solve the system of linear equation:
 2x+3y=-5
 y=2x+9
 ---
 my answer
 2x+3(2x+9) = -5
 2x+6x+27 = -5
 8x+27=-5
 8x=-32
 x=-32/-8
 x=-4
 --------
 y=2(-4)+9
 y=-8+9=1
 (-4,1)
 Good work
 -------------------
 Cheers,
