GENERAL MATHEMATICS

QUESTIONNAIRE:
1) Let f(x) = 3x² + 5. Determine the x if f(x) = 46.

Answer:
f(x) = 46
f(x) = 3x² + 5
46 = 3x² + 5
46 – 5 = 3x²
41/3 = 3x²/3
√41/3 = √x²
X = √41/3

2) Let r(x) = √(x-5). Find r(-11).

Answer:
5(x) = √(x – 5)
r(-11) = √(-11-5
r(-11) = √-16

(-11, √-16)
–
3) Given f(x) = 2x² + x – 3 and g(x) = x – 1. Solve (f/g)x.

Answer:
f(x)/g(x) = (2x² + x – 3)/(x- 1)
= (2x + 3)(x – 1)/(x – 1)
f(x)/g(x) = 2x + 3

4) Solve the rational equation 1/(x+5) + 4/(x-5) = 21/(x² - 25).

Answer:
1/(x+5) + 4/(x-5) - 21/(x² - 25) = 0
1/(x+5) + 4/(x-5) – 21/(x - 5)(x + 5) = 0
(x 5)(x + 5) [1/(x+5) + 4/(x-5) – 21/(x 5)(x + 5) = 0] (x 5)(x + 5)
x – 5 + 4(x + 5) – 21 = 0
x – 5 + 4x + 20 – 21 = 0
5x – 6 = 0
5x/5 = 6/5

5) Write True if the given value is a solution to the given inequality. If it is not, write
False and give the correct solution set of the inequality.

(x² - x + 1)/(x² - 9) ≥ 0 ; x = 2

Answer:
False
(x + 3)( x – 3) ≥ 0

x+3≥0
x = -3

x–3≥0
x≥3

6) Solve the inequality (3x+2)/(x – 1) ≤ 3 ; x = 2 to see if it is correct. Write True if it

is and False if it is not.

Answer:
(3x+2)/(x – 1) ≤ 3 ; x = 2
 ( x – 1) [(3x+2)/(x – 1) ≤ 3 ; x = 2] (x – 1)
3x + 2 ≤ 0
3x + (-1) ≤ 0
3x/3 ≤ 1/3
x ≤ 1/3

7) Hose L can fill a tank in 1.25 times as fast as hose M. When both faucets are
opened, they fill the tank in 4 hours. How long will it take for hose L to fill the tank
by itself?

Answer:
Hose L = 1.25(7.2)
=9

Hose M = 7.2

8) Determine the inverse of the function f(x) = 6x – 11 and graph.

Answer:
f(x) = 6x – 11
y = 6x – 11
x = 6y – 11
(x + 11)/6 = 6y/6
(x + 11)/6 = y

x -1 0 1 2
f(x) -17 -11 -5 1

x -17 -11 -5 1
f(x) -1 0 1 2

9) Determine the inverse of the function f(x) = (2x – 7)² - 5.

Answer:
f(x) = (2x – 7)² - 5
y = (2x – 7)² - 5
²√(x + 5) = ²√(2y – 7)²
²√(x+5) = 2y – 7
²√((x + 7) + 7)/2 = 2y/2
y = ²√((x + 7) + 7)/ 2

f^-1(x) = ²√((x + 7) + 7)/2

10) In a simple electric circuit, the current (I) varies inversely with its. Resistance
(R). When k = 7.05 Ω, the I is 10.2 A. What is the current of the circuit with a
resistance (R) of 32 Ω?

Answer:
I = k/R
10.2 = k/7.05
k = 71. 92 AΩ

I = k/R
I = 71. 91 AΩ / 32Ω
