Answer: 2

Work: let 4x-5=a

a^4=81
but 81=3^4
1 a^4=3^4
a=3
therefore 4x-5=3
4x=3+5
4x=8
X=2

Work: let h(x)=y

2 x−3
Y=
1−x
Replace all x with y. and solve for y
2 2 y −3
X=
1− y
X(1-y) =2y-3
x-xy=2y-3
x+3=2y+xy
x+3= (2+x) y
x+3
y=
2+3
y=h-1(x)

Answer: -3

Work: √(1-x)3=8
3 Square both sides
(1-x)3=64
Cube-root of both sides
1-x=4

Work: √x=-√ 7 x+2

6 Square both sides
X=7x+2

Answer: 0

Work: let log1/5 (1) =x

7 (1/5) x = 1 but any number raised to 0=1 so (1/5)0 =1
X=0

Answers: X=-6
Work: ∛(6x+9) =5-8
∛(6x+9) =-3
Cube both sides

6x+9=-27
6x=-27-9
6x=-36
X= -6

Answer: one-to-one function

Work:
 A function is said to be one to one if f(x1)=f(x2) x1=x2
That for each y-value, there only one x value.
Recall, a function is a set of ordered pairs where every first coordinate has
exactly one second coordinate.

A 1-1 function has the added constraint that each second coordinate has
exactly one first coordinate.
Therefore, the graph of a 1-1 function will pass the horizontal line test

Answer: gof (7) = 1

Work: (gof)7= g {f (7)}

f (7) = √ (7-3)
f (7) = 2
10 (gof)7= g (2)

g (2) = (2- 3)2

g (2) = 1
