X=5 

3x+2-5x=5x-8-5x

-2x+2=-8

-subtract 2 from both side
-then you divide both sides by -2

(got lazy with it but the answer is x=5)

3x + 2 = 5x - 8
Flip
5x - 8 = 3x + 2
Subtract both sides by 3x
2x - 8 = 2
Add both sides by 8
2x = 10
Divide both sides by 2
x = 5

That's your answer.

Have an awesome day! :)

If f(x) = 3x - 7, then f-1(x)=
fgiga [73]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

so f-1(x) means we are finding the inverse

f(x) = 3x - 7.....change f(x) to y

y = 3x - 7.....now switch ur x and y and solve for y

x = 3y - 7....add 7 to both sides

x + 7 = 3y...divide both sides by 3

(x/3) + 7/3 = y....rearrange

y = (x/3) + 7/3....can also be written as : y = 1/3x + 7

now just change ur y to f-1(x)

f-1(x) = x/3 + 7/3.....or f-1(x) = 1/3x + 7/3
