For a given function f(x) we define the domain restrictions as values of x that we can not use in our function. Also, for a function f(x) we define the inverse g(x) as a function such that:
g(f(x)) = x = f(g(x))
<u>The restriction is:</u>
x ≠ 4
<u>The inverse is:</u>
Here our function is:
We know that we can not divide by zero, so the only restriction in this function will be the one that makes the denominator equal to zero.
(x - 4)^2 = 0
x - 4 = 0
x = 4
So the only value of x that we need to remove from the domain is x = 4.
To find the inverse we try with the general form:
Evaluating this in our function we get:
Remember that the thing above must be equal to x, so we get:
From the two above equations we find:
b = 11
a = 4
Thus the inverse equation is:
If you want to learn more, you can read:
1. The x-intercepts are x = 0 and x = 6. You can find these by looking for where the line crosses the x-axis. You can see here that it does so at 0 and 6.
2. The maximum value for this function is looking for the f(x) value at the highest point. In this case, you will see that f(x) at the highest point is 120. This happens at x = 3. Once again, this can be found just by looking for the highest point on the graph.
3. Since that is the absolute highest point, it is also the point where is goes from increasing to decreasing. As a result, we know the increasing interval is x<120 and the decreasing interval is x > 120.
4. Finally, the average rate of change between 3 and 5 is -30. You can find this by determining the amount of change in f(x) and dividing it by the amount of change in x. The basic formula is below.
