Let f be the function defined by f(x) = –x^3 – x. If g represents the inverse of f, what is g′(10)?

Step-by-step explanation:

The Derivative of the Inverse Function

Let f(x) be a real invertible function, and g(x) the inverse function of f(x), i.e.,:

We can calculate the derivative of the inverse function even if we don't have the inverse function explicitly computed. We use the formula:

We need to find the value of g'(10) when:

Substituting:

We don't have the value of g(10) but we can guess its value since the inverse functions f and g satisfy:

if y=f(x), then g(y)=x, thus we need to find a value of x that produces a value of f(x)=10.

We can easily find that x=-2:

Thus, g(10)=-2

Now we find:

Thus, finally:

26 is 33.33% of 78

step-by-step explanation:

26 is what percent of 78?

26 is p% of 78

equation: y = p% * x

solving our equation for p

p% = y/x

p% = 26/78

p = 0.3333

convert decimal to percent:

p% = 0.3333 * 100 = 33.33%

answer: b.36 feet
