what is the inverse of the given relation? y=3x+12

OpenStudy (mathmale):

Here's the process: 1. Interchange x and y (write x where you now see y and y where you now see x). 2. Solve the resulting equation for y. 3. Replace the label y with \[f ^{-1}(x)\]

is it y = x/3 - 4

OpenStudy (mathmale):

Yes. Very nice! Don't forget to replace that y with \[f ^{-1}(x).\]
