Answer:
y = lnx/ln12
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the function y = 12^x, to find the inverse of the function, we news to write x as a function of y as shown:
Given y = 12^x
Taking ln of both sides
ln y = ln 12^x
ln y = xln12
Divide both sides by ln12
lny/ln12 = xln12/ln12
x = lny/ln12
x = ln(y-12)
Replacing y with x and x with y
The inverse of the function will be:
y = lnx/ln12

Answer:
and 
Step-by-step explanation:
A simple way to solve this problem is to plug the corresponding x and y into the function. We need only one pair since all the functions are quasi-linear (y=kx) and the increase is proportional.
In when x=3, y=15/4≈2.14
In 
when x=3, y=1.8
In when x=3, y≈2.33
In 
when x=3, y≈1.90
We can observe that in two cases, and , y is greater than 2.
