find the domain and simplified formula for the inverse f⁻1 of the following function f(x)= √(5x-2) find the domain and simplified formula for the inverse f⁻1 of the following function f(x)= 2x^3+8 please and thanks:)
1. f-1 = (x^2 +2)/5 2. f-1 = [(x-8)/(2)]^(1/3)
second one \[f(x)=2x^3+8\] has domain all real numbers. range as well function says 1) cube 2) double 3) add 8 inverse will say 1) subtract 8 2) divide by 2 3) take the cube root. get \[f^{-1}(x)=\sqrt[3]{\frac{x-8}{2}}\]
central science and u please show me how you got the answer im trying to figure it cause i need to learn it for my college algebra class please and thanks if you dont mind
To find inverse functions, you must first check if the original function is one-to-one, meaning that if you draw the graph of that function, it passes the Horizontal Line Test. The Horizontal Line Test states that a function is one-to-one if any horizontal line intersects that function at at most 1 point. If a function does have an inverse, you can find it by interchanging x and y and solving. For example, y = 2x +1 would become x = 2y + 1. You would then solve for this new y.
oh ok yes that makes sense i remember some of that from class
