Determine whether the function has an inverse function. If it does, find the inverse function. $$ f(x)=\frac{1}{x^{2}} $$
The total numbers of people (in thousands) in the U.S. civilian labor force from 1992 through 2007 are given by the following ordered pairs. $$\begin{array}{ll} (1992,128,105) & (2000,142,583) \\ (1993,129,200) & (2001,143,734) \\ (1994,131,056) & (2002,144,863) \\ (1995,132,304) & (2003,146,510) \\ (1996,133,943) & (2004,147,401) \\ (1997,136,297) & (2005,149,320) \\ (1998,137,673) & (2006,151,428) \\ (1999,139,368) & (2007,153,124) \end{array}$$ A linear model that approximates the data is \(y=1695.9 t+124,320,\) where \(y\) represents the number of employees (in thousands) and \(t=2\) represents 1992 . Plot the actual data and the model on the same set of coordinate axes. How closely does the model represent the data? (Source: U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics)
Determine if the situation could be represented by a one-to-one function. If so, write a statement that describes the inverse function. The number of miles \(n\) a marathon runner has completed in terms of the time \(t\) in hours
Determine if the situation could be represented by a one-to-one function. If so, write a statement that describes the inverse function. The depth of the tide \(d\) at a beach in terms of the time \(t\) over a 24 -hour period
Assume that \(y\) is directly proportional to \(x\). Use the given \(x\) -value and \(y\) -value to find a linear model that relates \(y\) and \(x\). $$ x=6, y=580 $$
