Which is the inverse of the function f (x) = 1/4x + 1/2

Mathematics

Answer:

f⁻¹(x) = 4x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the inverse of a function, switch the places of x and y (or f(x)).

f(x) = 1/4x + 1/2 → y = 1/4x + 1/2

Switch the variables.

x = 1/4y + 1/2

Now you want to convert the equation back into y = mx + b form.

x = 1/4y + 1/2

Subtract 1/2 from both sides.

x - 1/2 = 1/4y

Now, you want to isolate y further by dividing both sides by 1/4 (or multiplying by 4).

4(x - 1/2) = y

Distribute the 4.

4x - 2 = y → y = 4x - 2 → f⁻¹(x) = 4x - 2

This is the inverse of your given function.

Which best explains how you know that P(2, 7) is on the same line as Q(7, 4) and R(12, 1)?
Helen [10]

Answer:

See explanation below

Step-by-step explanation:

The best explanation is noticing that in order to get from the point R (12, 1) to the point Q (7, 4) we move 5 units to the left and 3 units up. And to go from point Q (7, 4) to point P (2, 7) we do exactly the same: move 5 units to the left and 3 units up. That means that these points are all connected via the same rate of change:  - 3/5, which is in fact the slope of the line the three points belong to.
