What is the inverse of the function f(x) = 2x + 1?

Answer: The inverse of the linear function f(x)=2x+1 is f^(-1) (x) = (1/2)x-1/2


Solution

f(x)=2x+1

y=f(x)

y=2x+1

Isolating x: Subtracting 1 both sides of the equation:

y-1=2x+1-1

y-1=2x

Multiplying both sides of the equation by 1/2:

(1/2)(y-1)=(1/2)2x

(1/2)y-1/2=x

x=(1/2)y-1/2

Changing "x" by "f^(-1) (x)" and "y" by "x":

f^(-1) (x) = (1/2)x-1/2

Factor completely 2x2 − 6x − 36.
gavmur [86]
To factor out completely, we should have reached the most simplified form,
first we should take out 2.
2(x2 - 3x - 18)
then we should factor out the inside of the parenthesis,
2(x - 6)(x + 3)
And that's the most simplified and factored out form.

The final answer is then the second option, <span>2(x − 6)(x + 3)</span>
