Linear Functions
Find the inverse of f(x) = 2x + 8.
f-1(x) = (x-8)/2
Find the inverse of f(x) = x2 + 3
f-1(x) = (x-3)^0.5
OR
f-1(x) = -(x-3)^0.5
Find the inverse of f(x) = 5x + 3
f-1(x) = log5(x-3)
If x is a number between 0 and 10, excluding those two numbers, how would you write this out in interval notation?
Interval notation: (0, 10)
Bonus: Set notation: {x | 0 < x < 10}
Aaron needs a 90 score average or more to get an A in his History class. Here are the scores of his two previous tests:
(a) 89
(b) 94
(c) ?
What is the minimum score he needs for his third test to get an A in the class?
(89+94+x)/3 >/ 90
x = 87
