tanner collected 360 cans and bottles, this was 40% of what Reggie collected, how many cans and bottles did Reggie collect

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: 360x.6+360=576
I got .6 because 40% would be .4 and 40+60=100
So Riggie collected 576 cans and bottles
Answer 2
Answer:


Tanner = 40% * Reggie;

Reggie = Tanner : 40%;

Reggie = 360 : 40/100 = 360 * 100/40 = 900 bottles

What is the inverse of the function f(x)=-x?

Answers

To find the inverse we have to first change the function notation to 'y'

So

f(x) = -x becomes y = -x

Next, we have to switch the x and y values

So, y = -x becomes x = -y

Now, we have to solve for y.

y = -x

So the inverse of f(x) = -x is:

f^(-1)(x) = -x

If y varies with x^2 and y=36, when x=3, what is y when x=5?

Answers

y=k x^(2) \n 36=k * (3) ^(2) = 9k \n k=36/9=4
Therefore, when x = 5,
y=4 * (5)^(2) = 4*25 = 100
