Answer:
f (
x
) −
1 =
(
1/
4 x
) −
2.
Step-by-step explanation:
For inverse function, the x and y interchanges and then make y the subject again of the equation. See the working out below:
f (
x
) = 4
x + 8
f (
x
) = y
y = 4
x + 8
x = 4
y +
8 ----- interchanging y and x
Now make y the subject of the equation:
x = 4
y + 8
−
4
y = -
x + 8
y = (
−
1/
4 )
. − x
+ (
−
1/
4 ) .8
y = (
1/
4 x
) −
2
So the inverse function is:
f (x) −
1 = (
1/
4 x
) −
2
That is just absolute value, basically what it means is take off whatever sign there was attached to it (such as a negative sign)
Answer:
Mixed Number Form: 2 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
1/4(2x - 14) = 4....multiply both sides by 4
2x - 14 = 4 * 4
2x - 14 = 16
2x = 16 + 14
2x = 30
x = 30/2
x = 15 <==
