TheSmartOne (thesmartone):
I am not sure how I would solve it because of the 9 and root 5...
OpenStudy (anonymous):
solve
\[x=9-\sqrt[5]{x-8}\] is a very few number of steps
TheSmartOne (thesmartone):
Do you mean y inside?

make that \[x=9-\sqrt[5]{y-8}\]
TheSmartOne (thesmartone):
Yes got that part..
TheSmartOne (thesmartone):
But how would I be able to get the y out...
OpenStudy (anonymous):
subtract 9
change the sign
raise to the power of 5
add 8
TheSmartOne (thesmartone):
\[-x+9=\sqrt[5]{y-8}\]

\[(-x+9)^5=y-8\]
TheSmartOne (thesmartone):
Is that correct so far? @satellite73
TheSmartOne (thesmartone):
I am getting stuck at (-x+9)^5
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yup
TheSmartOne (thesmartone):
Like is there a formula for it.

?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
just write it like that!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[f^{-1}(x)=(9-x)^5+8\] finished
TheSmartOne (thesmartone):
oh ok.. I wasn't sure how to write it..
TheSmartOne (thesmartone):
Thanks a lot..

@satellite73 Are you a boy or girl. Was going to write a testimony for you ^_^. I am thinking boy?
TheSmartOne (thesmartone):
@satellite73 Would the domain and range of both functions be \[(-\infty,\infty)\]
TheSmartOne (thesmartone):
Yes it was.. ^_^
