this question is poorly typed, I do not understand
f-1=(4+e^4)
please edit it so it is understandable
OpenStudy (anonymous):
inverse function
OpenStudy (turingtest):
you're saying the inverse function is a constant f(2) ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[f ^{-1} (4+e ^{4})\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
help!!! please math!!!!! due in 5 minutes

...cuz that's watchya wrote
OpenStudy (anonymous):
that's the question and i don't understand it myself :/
OpenStudy (turingtest):
wait, is it\[f^{-1}(4+e^4)\]or\[f^{-1}=(4+e^4)\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Let f(x)= \[2x+e ^{2x}\]. Find d/dx (\[(f ^{-1}(4+e ^{4}))\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Note that f(2)=\[4+e ^{4}\]

ok, hm.... sorta odd Q gotta think about it
OpenStudy (turingtest):
oh this is easy, we just need this one formula....
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i spent 10 mins trying to get started and couldn't even solve it. You're a super genius :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
and a life saver. i'm studying for my upcoming tests.
OpenStudy (turingtest):
\[[f^{-1}](a)={1\over f'(f^{-1}(a))}\]and thanks, but I'm no genius, just someone who has practiced :)

whoops, typo\[[f^{-1}]'(a)={1\over f'(f^{-1}(a))}\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i practice and still can't get things right :(
OpenStudy (turingtest):
give it time ;)
anyway do you see any ways to use this formula yet?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes. i can find the derivative of the f(x) function
OpenStudy (turingtest):
well what is \(a\) in our case?

and yes to your above comment :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
a=f(2)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
which is 4+e^4
OpenStudy (turingtest):
excellent !
keep going
OpenStudy (anonymous):
derivative of f(x)= 2(1+e^2x)

OpenStudy (turingtest):
what is \[f^{-1}(a)\]?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
2
OpenStudy (turingtest):
so now we can just plug into the formula, right?
OpenStudy (turingtest):
\[[f^{-1}]'(a)={1\over f'(f^{-1}(a))}\]
OpenStudy (turingtest):
just for reminders...

\[1/2+2e ^{4}\]
OpenStudy (turingtest):
that whole part after the 1 is in the denominator, right?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes
OpenStudy (turingtest):
then good job :)
congrads!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
:) thanks! couldn't have done it without your help

you did most of it yourself ;)
I just posted the formula pretty much
