Math Problem Statement
Solution
Let's solve for the inverse function for the given function:
Step-by-step solution:
-
Express :
-
Solve for in terms of :
First, isolate the square root:
Square both sides to eliminate the square root:
Now, solve for :
-
Replace with :
Since we are solving for the inverse function, replace with :
Thus, the inverse function is:
This holds for .
