Arrange the equations in the correct sequence to find the inverse of F(x)=Y=3x/8+x

1 answer:

8 0

F(x) = 3x/(8+x) = y

f^(-1) is the inverse function. As its name suggests if f(x) = y that we need to find a g(x) such that g(y) = x

In order to find f^(-1) switch x with y and solve for y

3y/(8+y) = x
x(8+y) = 3y
8x+xy = 3y
8x=3y-xy
8x = y(3-x)
y = 8x/(3-x)

f^(-1) = y = 8x/(3-x)

Algebra always makes things sound harder than they actually are, and weird vocabulary can mix up the steps we knew so well.

Part 1: Multiply the first equation by a 2 so that you can cancel out the y variable.

6x - 2y = 0

5x + 2y = 22

Part 2: Actually cancel out the y variables, and combine like terms.

11x = 22

Part 3: Solve for "x" by dividing both sides by 11

x = 2

Part 4: Substitute the variable "x" with the value we just solved for in the original equation.

3(2) - y = 0

6 - y = 0

Then, solve for y by adding y to both sides

6=y

Solution Set = {2,6}

Answer:

Option A, 4(x + 2)(x - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Pull out a 4

4(x^2 - 4)

Step 2: Factor x^2 - 4

x^2 - 4

(x + 2)(x - 2)

Step 3: Combine

4(x + 2)(x - 2)

Answer: Option A, 4(x + 2)(x - 2)
