\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{-6}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{8})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{3}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{-7}) \\\\\\ \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{-7}-\stackrel{y1}{8}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{3}-\underset{x_1}{(-6)}}}\implies \cfrac{-15}{3+6}\implies \cfrac{-15}{9}\implies -\cfrac{5}{3}

\bf \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{8}=\stackrel{m}{-\cfrac{5}{3}}[x-\stackrel{x_1}{(-6)}]\implies y-8=-\cfrac{5}{3}(x+6) \\\\\\ y-8=-\cfrac{5}{3}x-10\implies y = -\cfrac{5}{3}x-2

Talib is trying to find the inverse of the function to the right. His work appears beneath it. Is his work correct? Explain your
lianna [129]
Given the function
f(x)=-8x+4

The inverse of the function is calculated by changing f(x) to y and making x the subject of the formula as follows:
y=-8x+4 \\  \\ y-4=-8x \\  \\ x= \frac{y-4}{-8}

We now change back the variables to get the function in the form of inverse function as follows:
f^{-1}(x)=\frac{x-4}{-8}

Comparing this with Talib's work, we can see that he is correct except for the last line where he did not change the variable y back to x.

Therefore, the last line of his work made his inverse not to be correct.
