@shalante can you help me with a problem

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i just need help graphing something ..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Post it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay so it says Using the two functions listed below, insert numbers in place of letters a,b,c and d so that f(x) and g(x) inverses \[f(x) = \frac{ x+a}{ b }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and g(x) - cx - d

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for this part, i chose to do this f(x) = 2x + 5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

to find g(x) we would have to find the inverse of f(x) right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

becaue i did it that way, and got this: y=2x+5 (because i replaced f(x) and y)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

am i correct so far?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

f(x) has to be (x+any number)/a different number.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got x-5=2y/ 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and then after simplifying that i got y = x-5 / 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then where it says to evaluate g(x) i wasnt sure but this is how i did it:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it g(x)-cx-d or g(x)=cx-d?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

g(f(x)) = (2x+5)-5 / 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its g(x)=cx-d

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait im sorry i didnt include the parts

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for part 1 it said show the work that the inverse of f(x) is g(x)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2nd*

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the third part says to show my work evaluating g(x) and thats how i got the last ones

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got g(f(x)) = (2x+5)-5 / 2 , because i thought i would have to replace f(x) with the X in the g(x) ... if that makes any sense

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and at the end its asking me to graph it and im lost o_o

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what do you have to graph? f(g(x))?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes ..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got this far : \[g(f(x)) = \frac{ (2x+5)-5 }{ 2 }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but im not sure how to graph it now

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can you type out the whole problem correctly in one box to make sure?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thats it....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

tell me part 1,2,3 exactly from your assignment

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I need to know all the parts to do the steps correctly.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Task 1 Part 1. Using the two functions listed below, insert numbers in place of the letters a, b, c, and d so that f(x) and g(x) are inverses. f(x)= x+a / b g(x)=cx−d Part 2. Show your work to prove that the inverse of f(x) is g(x). Part 3. Show your work to evaluate g(f(x)). Part 4. Graph your two functions on a coordinate plane. Include a table of values for each function. Include 5 values for each function. Graph the line y = x on the same graph.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And if you go to the top, thats how i did the work...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Part 1 Let a=5, b=2,c=2,d=5 so |dw:1440132478788:dw| Part 2 |dw:1440132298809:dw| |dw:1440132437924:dw| Part 3:|dw:1440132646061:dw| |dw:1440132696527:dw|
