Help please @nincompoop

undeadknight26 (undeadknight26):

I think the answer is 2....

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

what is an inverse function?

undeadknight26 (undeadknight26):

If you dun know i duno know man o.o

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

what? LAUGHING OUT LOUD inverse function would be the reversed of the original function

undeadknight26 (undeadknight26):

Well yes thats a given good sir.

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

so in your equation, solve for x first then swap the x and y at the end

undeadknight26 (undeadknight26):

Lets just say my egg is fried right now ;-;

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

solve x for me first in the equation, that is without worrying about the value that needs to be plugged in

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

do it step-by-step go on. solve for x \[y= \frac{4x+1}{3}\]

undeadknight26 (undeadknight26):

i got it write. Its 2.

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

what? I want you to show me how will you solve for x

undeadknight26 (undeadknight26):

right*

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok so an inverse function is a function that "reverses" another function: if the function f applied to an input x gives a result of y, then applying its inverse function g to y gives the result x, and vice versa. i.e., f(x) = y if and only if g(y) = x. i think this website will help you http://www.purplemath.com/modules/invrsfcn3.htm

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

be mindful that the solution in getting the final answer is more important than the final answer itself

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

you can send me a message when you solve for x first :)

undeadknight26 (undeadknight26):

Bro i already solved this question. I do not come here for help. Simply to see if i got it right.
