I'll do 12, Nataszaa...the rest use exactly the same process......
12) y=3x+1
First ....get x by itself by subtracting 1 from both sides
y - 1 = 3x divide both sides by 3
(y - 1) / 3 = x
Now...."switch" x and y
(x - 1) / 3 = y now, for "y"...write f-1(x).....so we have...
f-1(x) = (x - 1) / 3 ....and that's the inverse function.....
This will really help http://www.mathsisfun.com/sets/function-inverse.html. Read the first few lines. ;)
I like the picture where you turn it the equation in to a banana. HAve a try, post your answer and someone will let you know if it's correct.
