Which equation is the inverse of y = x2 + 16? O y = x2 – 16
y=+√x - 16
y=+NX-16
y = x2 - 4

Hi there!

To solve for the inverse, swap the x and y variables:

x = y² + 16

Isolate for y by subtracting both sides by 16:

x - 16 = y²

Square root both sides:

√(x - 16) = y

Add the plus/minus sign:

y = ±√(x - 16)

answer is 8x+24

area of vanessa's patio = length × width

given, length = (3x² + 5x + 10)

width = (x² - 3x - 1)

area of vanessa's patio = (3x² + 5x + 10)(x² - 3x - 1)

= 3x²(x² - 3x - 1) + 5x(x² - 3x - 1) + 10(x² - 3x - 1)

= 3x⁴ - 9x³ - 3x² + 5x³ - 15x² - 5x + 10x² - 30x - 10

= 3x⁴ - 4x³ - 8x² - 35x - 10

hence, expression of vanessa's patio = (3x⁴ - 4x³ - 8x² - 35x - 10)
