Math Problem Statement
Solution
The question asks for the inverse functions of the given functions. Let's solve them one by one:
-
f(x) = 3x - 7
- To find the inverse, swap and in the equation: Swap and : Solve for : Therefore, the inverse function is:
-
g(x) = 9 - 2x
- Start by swapping and : Swap and : Solve for : Therefore, the inverse function is:
-
h(x) = \frac{1}{4}x + 5
- Swap and : Swap and : Solve for : Therefore, the inverse function is:
-
k(x) = 2 - \frac{1}{5}x
- Swap and : Swap and : Solve for : Therefore, the inverse function is:
