Given the function f(x) = 2^x, find the value of f^−1(32).
klio [65]
f(x)= 2^{x}

We are to find the value of f^{-1}(32)

First we need to find the inverse of f(x) . The inverse of 2^{x} is \frac{ln(x)}{ln(2)}.

Steps to find inverse of f(x) are shown below in the image.

So f^{-1}(32) = \frac{ln(32)}{ln(2)}=5

Therefore, the correct answer is option C

In algibratic fractions what is 1/2x-1/3y
Doss [256]
Simplify each term.

1/2X - 1/3Y

Combine 1/2x and −1/3y using a common denominator.

To write −1/3y as a fraction with a common denominator, multiply by 2x/2x. 

(1 / 2x )(3y / 3y) + (−1 / 3y) (2x / 2x) 

Write each expression with a common denominator of 6xy, by
multiplying each by an appropriate factor of 1. 

1 (3y)/6xy − 1 (2x)/6xy 

Combine the numerators over the common denominator. 

1(3y) − (1(2x))/6xy

Simplify the numerator.

3y−(1(2x))/6xy
