Fun fact
if f(a)=b then f⁻¹(b)=a
so
if f⁻¹(b)=a then f(a)=b
so we find f(x)=27 and the solve for x
f(x)=3x=27
3x=27
divide both sides by 3
x=9
so if f(9)=27 then f⁻¹(27)=9
problem solved
answer is 9
See the attachments for the answer :)
Answer: 0.001 or 1/1000
Since it is a negative exponent and -3 so it is in the thousandths, so 1/1000 or 0.001.
Have a good day! : )
The inverse function is f(x) =
, which makes the inverse at x = 2 equal to 0.
All inverse functions can be found by switching the x and f(x) values. Once that is done, solve for the new f(x) value. The result will be the inverse of the original function. The step-by-step process is below.
f(x) = 3(x + 2) - 4 ----> Switch the x and f(x)
x = 3(f(x) + 2) - 4 ----> Add 4 to both sides
x + 4 = 3(f(x) + 2) ----> Divide both sides by 3
= f(x) + 2 ----> Subtract 2 from both sides.
f(x) = 
The end is your inverse function. So then we can evaluate when x = 2.
f(x) = 
f(2) = 
f(2) = 
f(2) = 
f(2) = 0
