Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation for line of slope -6 that passes through (0,-2):

y+2 = -6(x-0)

y = -6x - 2

Plug in (g,-8) and solve for g:

-8 = -6g - 2

g = 1

Write the inverse of the function: f (x) = 2x+3

34kurt

Answer:

$y = \frac{x - 3}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the inverse of a function, simply 'switch' the x and y's and solve for y. $y = 2x + 3$ becomes $x = 2y + 3$ . Now, solving for y, we get $y = \frac{x - 3}{2}$ .

hope this helped! :)
