Math Problem Statement
KERJAKAN YG B
Find the inverse of the function f(x) = -x + 4
Solution
Let's solve part b, which asks for the inverse of the function .
Steps to find the inverse of a function:
- Start with the function .
- Replace with . So, we have:
- Swap and to find the inverse. Now, it becomes:
- Solve for : Thus, the inverse function is:
In this case, the function's inverse is the same as the original function, meaning .
