For this case we must find the inverse of the following function:
For this, we follow the steps below:
We change f (x) to y:
We exchange the variables:
We solve for y:
We divide between 8 on both sides of the equation:
We raise both sides of the equation to the square to remove the root:
So, the inverse is:

Option C
Answer:
y = x²
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that y and x² are directly proportional then the equation relating them is
y = kx² ← k is the constant of proportion
When x = 2
y = k × 2² = 4k
When x = 5
y = k × 5² = 25k
Then
25k - 4k = 20 ( difference between values is 20 )
21k = 20 ( divide both sides by 21 )
k =
y = x² ← equation of proportion
