What is f^1(3) when f(x)=(2x-7)/3 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

* f^-1(3)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

First you need to invert the function

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I got 8 too, but I have a question that asks which statements have the same result, and I got 8 for all of them. So I dont know where I went wrong.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I\[y=( x/3 +7) / 2. \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is this what you got for the inverse? If so I came up with 4.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No, I put y=(3x+7)/2. Wouldnt you multiply both sides by 3?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Your right. My error

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So you did get 8?
