Question

Can someone help me find the inverse of this? Please show steps. :(D%7B9%7D%283%5Ex%29" id="TexFormula1" title="f(x)= \frac{1}{9}(3^x)" alt="f(x)= \frac{1}{9}(3^x)" align="absmiddle" class="latex-formula">

Answer 1

$\frac{1}{9}( 3^{x}) = 3 ^ {x-2}$
So the inverse is
$(log _{3} {x}) + 2$

Answer 2

$y = \frac{3^{x}}{9}$
$x = \frac{3^{y}}{9}$ (Interchange the x-values and the y-values)

Now, solve for y.
$9x = 3^{y}$
$y = log_3 (9x)$
$y = log_3(9) + log_3(x)$
$y = 2log_3{3} + log_3(x)$

$y = \frac{ln(x) + 2ln(3)}{ln(3)}$
