f(x)=x+3 /x inverse

OpenStudy (tkhunny):

Do you mean what you have written, \(x + \dfrac{3}{x}\), or did you mean \(\dfrac{x+3}{x}\)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh sorry, yeah the second one

OpenStudy (tkhunny):

See if you can fix what you have written so that your intent is represented. It's important to be able to communicate.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

don't really know how to work it but i think i fixed it better

OpenStudy (tkhunny):

For \(y = \dfrac{x+3}{x}\), the standard procedure is to swap and solve. Technically, the "solve" is not necessary, but most folks like it that way. \(x = \dfrac{y+3}{y}\) That's it!! Okay, now solve for y. P.S. Use parentheses to clarify intent.

Ahhh, okay. Thank you for your help + tip :)
