What are the additive and multiplicative inverses of h(x) = x – 24? A) Additive inverse: j(x) = x + 24; multiplicative inverse: k(x) = 1 / x - 24
B) Additive inverse: j(x) = 1 / x - 24; multiplicative inverse: k(x) = –x + 24
C) Additive inverse: j(x) = –x + 24; multiplicative inverse: k(x) = 1 / x - 24
D) Additive inverse: j(x) = –x + 24; multiplicative inverse: k(x) = x + 24

C

Step-by-step explanation:

additive inverse:h(x) = x – 24 to j(x) = –x + 24

When trying to determine the additive inverse of an expression, rather than just an integer, multiply the entire expression by -1. This changes the sign of all the terms in the expression, and will sum to 0 when added to the original expression.

multiplicative inverse: k(x) =  x-24 to 1/x-24

just like x-24/1 and reflect it.

C) Additive inverse: j(x) = –x + 24; multiplicative inverse: k(x) = 1 / x - 24

call the larger triangle abc

then the smaller triangle cde is similar to abc (all angles are equal, aaa).  

ab is the side that is 36, and we wish to find de, the side corresponding to ab

area_cde = area_abc - area_cde --> area_abc / area_cde = 2

let x=length of de

ratio of areas = (ratio of sides)^2
