If h(x) is the inverse of f(x), what is the value of h(f(x))? A. 0 B. 1 C. x D. f(x)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

would you like to work an example with me to find the answer?

OpenStudy (sherribelle):

Sure, I mean I know the steps on how to do it, just seeing no numbers involved is challenging. In order to find out h(f(x)) is, you have to figure out what f(x) is first.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

let f(x) = 2x, what is the inverse of this?

OpenStudy (sherribelle):

x/2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes, that means h(x) = x/2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now what is h{f(x)}? It means we substitute f(x) into the x for the h(x)

OpenStudy (sherribelle):

So basically it's x?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yep. you can use another number for verification.

OpenStudy (sherribelle):

Okay thank you. The way that my school system teaches it is so confusing so I use another site to learn what's going on.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh really, well i learned this in 2008-ish lol

OpenStudy (sherribelle):

I'm a senior this year.
