Hello,

Let's r the ration

We suppose x ≠0

x=r*(x-2)==>r=x/(x-2)

x+3=r*x==> (x+3)/x=x/(x-2)==>(x+3)(x-2)=x²
==>x²+3x-2x-6=x² ==>x-6=0==>x=6

x-2=6-4=4
x=6
x+3=6+3=9
6=4*3/2
9=6*3/2

Ration 3/2
First term: 4

Which function is f(x) equal to f^-1(x)?
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

c. f(x) x+1/x-1

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question, we need to check each answer one by one until we find the right one.  

y = (x+6)/(x-6)  

switch x and y  

x = (y+6)/(y-6)  

solve for y  

x(y-6) = y+6  

xy - 6x = y+6  

y(x-1) = 6x+6  

y = (6x+6) /(x-1) = 6(x+1)/(x-1)  

f^-1(x) = 6(x+1)/(x-1)  

y = (x+2)/(x-2)  

switch x and y  

x = (y+2)/(y-2)  

solve for y  

x(y-2) = y+2  

xy -2x = y+2  

y(x-1) = 2x+2  

y = (2x+2)/(x-1)  

f^-1(x) = 2(x+1)/(x-1)  

y = (x+1)/(x-1) ------ correct one  

switch x and y  

x = (y+1)/(y-1)  

solve for y  

x(y-1) = y+1  

xy - x = y+1  

y(x-1) = x+1  

y = (x+1)/(x-1)  

f^-1(x) = (x+1)/(x-1)  

f(x) = f^-1(x)
