Let f(x) = 2x + 2. Solve f-1(x) when x = 4.

First you need to find f inverse, since they want you to find \[f^-1(x)\] when x = 4. If f(x) = 2x + 2, do you know how to find the inverse of that function?

nah not really iv always had difficulty @anteater

If you don't mind, I will show you a process you can use to find the inverse of a function.

Basically, when you have a function of x, that function takes x and does something to it. In the case of your function f(x) = 2x + 2, the function multiplies x by 2, then adds 2 to the result. The inverse function "undoes" what the function did to x, so you get x back.
