Since two negatives equal a positive, you can re arrange the problem like this

-5 +8 Then you do the actual math to get an answer of 3

If your having trouble with the math portion of it, I like to think of it as making the double negative into a positive, then subtracting the 5 from the 8.. this doesn't work with all problems though :)

Which of the following is the function F(x) if F^-1(x) = x+4/11?
Marianna [84]

Answer:

B. F(x) =X-4/11

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the inverse function;

f^(-1)(x) = x + 4/11

Thus means, x was replaced with y and vise versa. Thus;

x = y + 4/11

Lets make y the subject;

y = x - 4/11

Thus,in inverse of a function we replace y with f(x) for the original function or f^(1)(x) for the inverse.

Thus, putting f(x) for y gives;

f(x) = x - 4/11
