Type the correct answer in each box. Use numerals instead of words. If necessary, use / for the fraction bar(s).

f^-1(x) = [ln (x + 4)]/2

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = e^(2x) - 4

y = e^(2x) - 4

x = e^(2y) - 4

x + 4 = e^(2y)

ln (x + 4) = ln (e^(2y))

ln (x + 4) = 2y

y = [ln (x + 4)]/2

f^-1(x) = [ln (x + 4)]/2

vertical asymptote .

horizontal asymptote .

step-by-step explanation:

given function is .

vertical asymptote is given by setting

denominator =0

when degree of numerator and denominator are same then divide first term of numerator by first term of denominator to get horizontal asymptote.

(a) {a₁, a₁r, a₁r², … a₁rⁿ⁻¹, …}

(b) $59 398

step-by-step explanation:

(a) the annual sequence of profits

aₙ = a₁rⁿ⁻¹

the model for the sequence of profits is {a₁, a₁r, a₁r², … a₁rⁿ⁻¹, …} .

(b) profit after 15 yr

  a₁ = $ 30 000

  r = 1.05

a₁₅ = 30 000 × 1.05¹⁴

a₁₅ = 30 000 × 1.979 93

a₁₅ = $59 398

the profit in year 15 will be $59 398.
