Question

Identify the errors made in finding the inverse of

Answer 1

Answer:

x = y² + 12x

y² = x - 12

y² = -11x.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the inverse of the given function , which is ,

$\rm\implies y = x^2 + 12x$

Step 1 : Interchange x and y :-

$\rm\implies x = y^2 + 12y$

But according to the steps given in the Question , in very first step in 12x , x is not replaced by y . After which , the steps go wrong in the question .

The 3 errors :-

• x = y² + 12x
• y² = x - 12
• y² = -11x.
