Answer:

f^{-1}(x)=\frac{1}{2}x-\frac{1}{2} ⇒ answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to find the inverse of a function

- To find the inverse of a function :

# Write y = f(x)

# Switch the x and y

# Solve to find the new y

# The new y is f^{-1}

* Lets solve the problem

∵ f(x) = 2x + 1

- Put y = f(x)

∴ y = 2x + 1

- Switch x and y

∴ x = 2y + 1

- Solve to find the new y

∵ x = 2y + 1

- Subtract 1 from both sides

∴ x - 1 = 2y

- Divide both sides by 2

∴ (x - 1)/2 = y

- Divide each term in the left hand side by 2

∴ y = 1/2 x - 1/2

- Replace y by f^{-1}

∴ f^{-1}(x)=\frac{1}{2}x-\frac{1}{2}

* The inverse of the function is f^{-1}(x)=\frac{1}{2}x-\frac{1}{2}

Answer: OPTION 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function f(x):

f(x) = 2x + 1

You can follow these steps in order to find its inverse function h(x):

- Rewrite it with f(x)=y:

y= 2x + 1

- Solve for "x":

y-1=2x\\\\\frac{y-1}{2}=x\\\\ x=\frac{1}{2}y-\frac{1}{2}

- Exchange the variables:

y=\frac{1}{2}x-\frac{1}{2}

- Rewrite it with y=h(x). Then:

 h(x)=\frac{1}{2}x-\frac{1}{2}

Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

shift the graph horizontally to the right for 3 units and then shift vertically up 2 units

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x³  vs f(x-3)+2

f(x-3) will shift the graph horizontally to the right for 3 units

+2: will shift vertically up 2 units

An object has volume 36 cubic inches. A box has side lengths 1 foor by 3 inches by 4 inches.
nevsk [136]

Answer:

<u>4 Objects can fit in the box</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

First, translate the box's 1-foot side into 12 inches. Now multiply all the box's sides together to get 12*3*4. This will equal 144 cubic inches. Now divide 144 by 36 to get 4.
