Case a)
f(x)=[x-1]/[x+5]
step 1
f(x)=y
y=[x-1]/[x+5]
step 2
exchange x for y and y for x
y=[x-1]/[x+5]------> x=[y-1]/[y+5]----> x*[y+5]=[y-1]----> xy+5x=y-1
step 3
clear the variable y
xy+5x=y-1-----> y-xy=5x+1----> y*[1-x]=[5x+1]----> y=[5x+1]/[1-x]
step 4
f(x)-1= [5x+1]/[1-x]
the function and the inverse function are not the same

case b)
g(x)=[x-2]/[x-1]
step 1
g(x)=y
y=[x-2]/[x-1]
step 2
exchange x for y and y for x
y=[x-2]/[x-1]------> x=[y-2]/[y-1]----> x*[y-1]=[y-2]----> xy-x=y-2
step 3 
clear the variable y
xy-x=y-2-----> xy-y=-2+x----> y*[x-1]=[x-2]----> y=[x-2]/[x-1]
step 4
g(x)-1= [x-2]/[x-1]
the function and the inverse function are  the same

case c)
h(x)=[x+3]/[x-2]
step 1
h(x)=y
y=[x+3]/[x-2]
step 2
exchange x for y and y for x
y=[x+3]/[x-2]------> x=[y+3]/[y-2]----> x*[y-2]=[y+3]----> xy-2x=y+3
step 3 
clear the variable y
xy-2x=y+3-----> xy-y=3+2x----> y*[x-1]=[2x+3]----> y=[2x+3]/[x-1]
step 4
h(x)-1= [2x+3]/[x-1]
the function and the inverse function are not the same

case d)
k(x)=[x+1]/[x-1]
step 1
k(x)=y
y=[x+1]/[x-1]
step 2
exchange x for y and y for x
y=[x+1]/[x-1]------> x=[y+1]/[y-1]---> x*[y-1]=[y+1]----> xy-x=y+1
step 3 
clear the variable y
xy-x=y+1-----> xy-y=x+1----> y*[x-1]=[x+1]----> y=[x+1]/[x-1]
step 4
k(x)-1= [x+1]/[x-1]
the function and the inverse function are  the same

Two cyclists leave a city at the same time, one going east and the other going west. The westbound cyclist bikes at 3 mph faster
NikAS [45]
We will say that the eastbound cyclist is going x mph. This means that the westbound cyclist is going x+3 mph.
They are both cycling for 6 hours and end up 162 miles apart.
Distance=rate*time
6x+6(x+3)=162
6x+6x+18+162
12x=144
x=12
So, the eastbound cyclist is going 12 mph.
Remember the westbound cyclist is going 3 mph faster, so s/he is going 15 mph.
Hope this helps!!
