Other Pre-calc question : "Find a formula for f^-1(x). Give the domain of f^-1, including any restrictions "inherited" from f. f(x) = 3x-6" Can you explain how you get this answer?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for f inverse of x: let y=3x-6: solve for x,So: (y+6)/3=x,then switch x and y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so y=(x+6)/3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then that is f(inverse) of x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then the range of f becomes the domain of f inverse

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And how do you find out the restrictions?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i don't think there are any restrictions- because in order to have a restriction, you have to have division by zero

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh. Thank you very much! :D

no prob
