Math Problem Statement
let f(x) = 1/x+13 f^-1(x) =
Solution
To find the inverse of the function , we follow these steps:
-
Replace with :
-
Swap and to set up the equation for the inverse function:
-
Isolate by subtracting 13 from both sides:
-
Take the reciprocal of both sides to solve for :
Thus, the inverse function is:
