Find a formula for the inverse of the following function, if possible.

KyledaGreat:

\[k(x) = (5x + 4)^{\frac{ { 1 } }{ 5 }}\] \[k ^{-1} (x) = \] does not have an inverse function

KyledaGreat:

1/(5x + 4)^4/5

KyledaGreat:

is this right

@tranquility

Tranquility:

No. After you switch x and y, you get x = (5y + 4)^1/5 To solve for y, you need to take everything to the power of 5 to get rid of the 1/5 \( x = (5y + 4)^{\frac{1}{5}}\) \( x^5 =( (5y + 4)^{\frac{1}{5}})^5\) \( x^5 =5y + 4\) Can you solve for y now?

hey tranquility, i need help on him no more. It's okay
