What is the inverse of the function below? f(x) = 2^x + 6
2 answers:
The inverse of this function would be f(x) = .
You can find the value of any inverse function by switching the f(x) and the x value. Then you can solve for the new f(x) value. The end result will be your new inverse function. The step-by-step process is below.
f(x) = - 6 ----> Switch f(x) and x
x = - 6 ----> Add 6 to both sides
x + 6 = -----> Take the logarithm of both sides in order to get the f(x) out of the exponent
Log(x + 6) = f(x)Log2 ----> Now divide both sides by Log2
= f(x) ----> And switch the order for formatting purposes.
f(x) =
And that would be your new inverse function.

From trigonometry we know that:
if
then, (where
is an integer)
This can be rewritten in degrees as:
.............(Equation 1)
Now, in our case,
Therefore, (Equation 1) can be written as:
..........(Equation 2)
Now, to find the correct options all that we have to do is replace n by relevant integers and find the values of that match.
For n=2, (Equation 2) gives us: .
Thus,
Now, we know that:
Let n=-1, then:
Thus,
Likewise,
Only the last option will never match
because no integral value of
will ever give
Thus the last option is the correct option.
