The answer would be log base 2 of 6 over log base 2 of 3
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Ahmad = 1/6
Barry = 1/2
Tara = 1 - 1/6 - 1/2 = 1/3
1/3 of the seashells = 76
3/3 of the seashells = 76 x 3
3/3 of the seashells = 228
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: They had 228 seashells altogether.

First, conceptually understand what an inverse function is, it makes solving it very intuitive. An inverse function is simply a function which has points (y,x) for every point (x,y) of the parent function. So you are essentially taking all points of the parent function and switching the x and y coordinates for each. Those switched coordinates are produced by the "inverse function".
Mathematically then, finding the inverse function is a matter of solving for x and then switching the variable labels. In this case:
y=2x+1 subtract 1 from both sides
y-1=2x divide both sides by 2
(y-1)/2=x now just switch the labels for the variables...
y=(x-1)/2 so
f^-1(x)=(x-1)/2 is the inverse of f(x)=2x+1
