inverse functions? what is the inverse function of 2x-5/3
sorry its f(X)= 2x-5/3
Do you mean \( f(x) = \dfrac{2x - 5}{3} \) ?
yes
This is how you find the inverse of a function: 1. Replace f(x) with y. 2. Switch x and y. 3. Solve for y. 4. Replace y with \(f^{-1} (x) \).
I'll show you an example with a different, but similar, function. Example: Find the inverse function of \(f(x) = \dfrac{4x - 3}{2} \).
Solution: 1. \(y = \dfrac{4x - 3}{2} \) 2. \(x = \dfrac{4y - 3}{2} \) 3. \(x = \dfrac{4y - 3}{2} \) Multiply both sides by 2: \(2x = 4y - 3 \) Add 3 to both sides: \(2x + 3 = 4y\) Divide both sides by 4: \(\dfrac{2x + 3}{4} = y\) \(y = \dfrac{2x + 3}{4}\) 4. \(f^{-1}(x) = \dfrac{2x + 3}{4}\)
f\[f ^{-1}(x)=\frac{ 3x+5 }{ 2 }\]
@mathstudent55 is that right?^
Correct.
