1) (2x+3)^3 -6
Write
y = (2x+3)^3 - 6 add 6 to both sides
y + 6 = (2x+ 3)^3 take the cube root of each side
∛ (y + 6) = 2x + 3 subtract 3 from both sides
∛ ( y + 6) - 3 = 2x divide both sides by 2
[ ∛ ( y + 6) - 3 ] / 2 = x "swap" x and y
[ ∛ ( x + 6) - 3 ] / 2 = y = the inverse
Putting this into (2x+3)^3 -6 we get
( 2 [ ∛ ( x + 6) - 3 ] / 2 + 3)^3 - 6 =
( ∛ ( x + 6) - 3 + 3 )^3 - 6 =
x + 6 - 6 = x
And putting the original into the inverse
[ ∛ ( [ (2x+3)^3 -6 ] + 6) - 3 ] / 2 =
[ ∛ { (2x + 3)^3 - 3 ] / 2 =
[2x + 3 - 3 ] / 2 =
2x / 2 = x
So...they are inverses !!!!
2)
y = (-3x+1)^2 - 2
y + 2 = (-3x + 1)^2 take the root
sqrt ( y + 2) = -3x + 1
sqrt (y + 2) - 1 = -3x
[ 1 - sqrt (y + 2) ] / 3 = x swap x and y
[ 1 - sqrt (x + 2) ] / 3 = y this is the inverse
Put the original into this
[ 1 - sqrt ( [ (-3x+1)^2 - 2 ] + 2 ] / 3 =
[ 1 - sqrt [ -3x +1 }^2 ] / 3
[1 - [ -3x + 1 ] ] / 3
3x /3 = x
Put the inverse into the original
(-3 [ 1 - sqrt (x + 2) ] / 3 ] +1)^2 - 2 =
( - [ 1 - sqrt ( x + 2) ]/3 ] + 1 )^2 - 2 =
( sqrt (x + 2) )^2 - 2 =
x + 2 - 2 = x
3) square root of (3x+7)
y = √[3x + 7] square both sides
y^2 = 3x + 7
y^2 - 7 = 3x
[ y^2 - 7 ] /3 = x
[ x^2 - 7 ] / 3 = y = the inverse
Put the inverse into the original
√ ( 3 [ [ x^2 - 7 ] / 3 + 7 ) =
√ [ x^2 - 7 + 7 ] =
√x^2 = x
Put the original into the inverse
[ ( √[3x + 7] ) ^2 - 7 ] / 3
[ 3x + 7 - 7 ) /3
3x /3 = x
y = -2x^3 +6
y - 6 = -2x^3
[ 6 - y ] / 2 = x^3
∛ ( [ 6 - y ] / 2 ) = x
∛ ( [ 6 - x] / 2) = y = the inverse
Original into inverse
∛ ( [ 6 - ( -2x^3 + 6 ) ] / 2)
∛ ( [ 2x^3 ] / 2 ) =
∛ x^3 = x
Inverse into original
-2( ∛ ( [ 6 - x] / 2) )^3 + 6 =
- ∛ [ 6 - x]^3 + 6 =
- 6 + x + 6 = x
