Question

If a function is defined by the equation y=5x−5, which equation defines the inverse of this function?

Answer 1

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the function:

$y=5x-5$

To find the inverse, simply flip x and y and solve for y. Therefore:

$x=5y-5$

$x+5=5y$

$y=\frac{x+5}{5}$

$y=\frac{1}{5}x+1$

The inverse function to $y=5x-5$ is $y=\frac{1}{5}x+1$.
