If f(x) =5x + 12 what is f-1(x)

Mathematics
1 answer:
Olin [163]3 years ago

To find the inverse of a function, first, let's switch f(x) with y

y=5x + 12

Now, change all the x's into y's and change all the y's into x's

x=5y+12

Now, let's solve this equation in terms of y.

Subtract both sides by 12

x-12 = 5y

Divide both sides by 5

\frac{x}{5} -  \frac{12}{5} =y

Flip the equation so we have the y on the left

y=\frac{x}{5} - \frac{12}{5}

Now, replace the y with f^{-1}(x)

f^{-1}(x)=\frac{x}{5} - \frac{12}{5}

That's your answer. If you need any clarifications, feel free to comment.

Have an awesome day! :)

2.  They are both straight lines.  The solution of a linear system is where the two lines intersect, and if they're both straight lines, then they can only cross once.

Sin x = - 1/2<br> where (-360 &lt; x &lt; 360)
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

-30, 210 and 330 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression Sin x = - 1/2

x = arcsin(-1/2)

x = -30 degrees

Since sin is negative in the third and fourth quadrant

x = 180 + 30

x = 210 degrees

In the fourth quadrant

x = 360 - 30

x = 330

Hence the value of x within the interval -360 < x < 360 are -30, 210 and 330 degrees
