This set of points is on the graph of a function.
What is the inverse of f(x)=4x+3?
What is the inverse of the function?
f(x) = 1/4x + 10
The inverse will have reverse coordinates.....so the points on the inverse are
(-8, -2), (9, 0)
f(x) = 4x + 3
For f(x), write y
y = 4x + 3 subtract 3 from both sides
y - 3 = 4x divide both sides by 4
[ y - 3 ] / 4 = x swap x and y
[x - 3] / 4 = y for y, write f-1(x)
f-1 (x) = (1/4)x - 3/4
f(x) = (1/4)x + 10
y = (1/4)x + 10
y - 10 = (1/4)x multiply both sides by 4
4y - 40 = x
4x - 40 = y
f-1(x) = 4x - 40
