Math Problem Statement
Solution
We are given the function , and we are asked to find the inverse function .
To find the inverse function, we follow these steps:
-
Start by setting , so .
-
Now, solve for in terms of by isolating .
First, add 2 to both sides of the equation:
-
Now, raise both sides of the equation to the power of 5 to remove the fifth root:
-
The inverse function is obtained by switching and :
Thus, the correct inverse function is .
From the answer choices, the correct option is:

- What is the domain and range of the inverse function ?
- How does the behavior of the function change when you add or subtract constants?
- What are the general steps to find the inverse of any function?
- Can every function have an inverse? Why or why not?
Tip: When finding an inverse, make sure to express the original variable completely in terms of the new one and then swap them to get the final form.
