Question

For the function f, of, x, equals, start fraction, 8, divided by, 9, plus, 4, x, end fractionf(x)= 9+4x8​ , find f, to the power minus 1 , left parenthesis, x, right parenthesisf −1 (x).

Solution

To find the inverse of the function f(x) = 8/(9+4x), we follow these steps:

  1. Replace f(x) with y: y = 8/(9+4x)

  2. Swap x and y: x = 8/(9+4y)

  3. Solve for y:

    Multiply both sides by (9+4y) to get rid of the denominator on the right side: x(9+4y) = 8

    Distribute x on the left side: 9x + 4xy = 8

    Isolate terms with y: 4xy = 8 - 9x

    Divide by 4x to solve for y: y = (8 - 9x) / 4x

So, the inverse function f^(-1)(x) = (8 - 9x) / 4x.
