Math Problem Statement
Solution
The image contains a problem-solving task that asks to find the inverse of several functions. The functions are:
Let me guide you through the process of finding the inverse for each function:
1. Finding the inverse of
To find the inverse, follow these steps:
- Replace with :
- Solve for :
- Replace with to get the inverse function:
2. Finding the inverse of
- Replace with :
- Solve for :
- Replace with :
3. Finding the inverse of
- Replace with :
- Solve for :
- Replace with :
4. Finding the inverse of
- Replace with :
- Multiply both sides by : Expand:
- Get all terms involving on one side: Factor on the left-hand side:
- Solve for :
- Replace with :

Here are 5 related questions to expand this information:
- How can you verify if the calculated inverse function is correct?
- What types of functions do not have an inverse, and why?
- How does the graphical interpretation of a function's inverse look on the Cartesian plane?
- Are there any restrictions on the domains or ranges of the inverse functions obtained?
- Can all polynomial functions have inverses? Why or why not?
Tip:
Always check if the original function is one-to-one before finding its inverse, as only one-to-one functions have inverses.
