I can find the inverse of a function and use composition of functions to verify inverse functions.
A clothing store is having a “40% off everything” sale. Ted has a $25 gift card. The function
represents Ted’s cost T (in dollars) for items that cost cdollars. The function
represents the purchase price P (in dollars) for items that originally cost c dollars.
Question 1
1.
Use the information from the problem above to write Ted’s cost T as a function of the purchase cost P.
Question 2
2.
Now, use the function to find Ted’s cost when the original cost of his items is $54.
Question 3
3.
Write a function that applies the gift card first and then the discount?
Question 4
4.
Should he ask for the gift card to be applied before or after a discount? Explain.
A small rock is thrown into a pool from the shore, creating ripples in the water. The ripples form concentric circles. The function r(t) = 14t models the radius (in inches) of the outer ripple t seconds after the rock enters the water. Write a function for the area (in square inches) of the outer ripple as a function of time (in seconds). What is the approximate area of the circle defined by the outer ripple 6 seconds after the rock was dropped?

A small rock is thrown into a pool from the shore, creating ripples in the water. The ripples form concentric circles. The function r(t) = 14t models the radius (in inches) of the outer ripple t seconds after the rock enters the water. Write a function for the area (in square inches) of the outer ripple as a function of time (in seconds). What is the approximate area of the circle defined by the outer ripple 6 seconds after the rock was dropped? Round to the nearest whole square inch.
Sally earns a weekly salary of $800 plus a 5% commission from her weekly sales. The function
models Sally’s total weekly earnings when her weekly sales are s dollars.
Question 6
6.
What is the inverse function of E(s)?
Question 7
7.
Describe the domain and range of s(E), the inverse, in the context of the situation.
Question 8
8.
Determine Sally’s weekly sales when she earns a total of $2000 for the week.
The overall distance between the moon and Earth is changing because the moon is pulling away from us. The function
gives the time T (in millions of years) from now that the moon will be D (in kilometers) from Earth.
Question 9
9.
How far will the moon be from Earth in 1000 million years from now?
