<h3>Answer: Reflect over the y axis</h3>

=====================================================

Explanation:

We have these two given functions

f(x) = x+7
g(x) = -x+7

The change is that the x has been replaced with -x

We can say

f(x) = x+7

f(-x) = -x+7 ... replace each x with -x

g(x) = f(-x)

g(x) = -x+7

When we replace x with -x, we're flipping the x inputs from positive to negative, and vice versa. This visually will reflect the line over the vertical y axis. A point like (1,8) on f(x) reflects over to (-1,8) on g(x).

As another example, the point (-5,2) on f(x) reflects over the y axis to arrive at (5,2) on the g(x) function.

5/8
6/3
7/10
These are all the answers 4/8 is 1/2 and 5/8 is over it there is no half of 3 but 6/3 is 2 and 2 is a whole number it's over 1/2
5/10=1/2 and 7/10 is over it 1/4 isn't an answer because 2/4=1/2 6/12=1/2 but it says over 1/2 and finally 5/12 isn't it because like I said above 6/12 is 1/2

Given f(x) = 4x^4 find f^-1(x) Then state whether f^-1(x) is a function.

sdas [7]

Answer:

$f^{-1}(x)=\pm\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{x}{4}}$
$f^{-1}(x) \quad\text{is not a function}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the inverse function, solve for y:

$x=f(y)\\\\x=4y^4\\\\\dfrac{x}{4}=y^4\\\\\pm\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{x}{4}}=y\\\\f^{-1}(x)=\pm\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{x}{4}}$

f(x) is an even function, so f(-x) = f(x). Then the inverse relation is double-valued: for any given y, there can be either of two x-values that will give that result.

___

A function is single-valued. That means any given domain value maps to exactly one range value. The test of this is the "vertical line test." If a vertical line intersects the graph in more than one point, then that x-value maps to more than one y-value.

The horizontal line test is similar. It is used to determine whether a function has an inverse function. If a horizontal line intersects the graph in more than one place, the inverse relation is not a function.

Since the inverse relation for the given f(x) maps every x to two y-values, it is not a function. You can also tell this by the fact that f(x) is an even function, so does not pass the horizontal line test. When f(x) doesn't pass the horizontal line test, f^-1(x) cannot pass the vertical line test.

_____

The attached graph shows the inverse relation (called f₁(x)). It also shows a vertical line intersecting that graph in more than one place.
