f(x) = 3x -3

 

y = 3x-3

x = 3y-3

x+3 = 3y

(x+3) / 3 = f'(x)

f(x)=3x-1- 2   for f(x), write  y

 

y = 3x-1- 2    add 2  to each side

 

y  + 2  =  3x-1    log each side

 

log ( y  + 2 )  = log 3x-1    and we can write

 

log ( y  + 2 )  = (x -1) log 3        divide by log 3

 

log ( y  + 2 ) / log 3  = x -1     add 1  to each side

 

[ log ( y  + 2 ) / log 3]+ 1  =  x      swap  x, y

 

[ log ( x + 2 ) / log 3]+ 1  =   y       for  y, write  f -1(x)

 

[ log ( x + 2 ) / log 3]+ 1  =  f -1(x)
