Example Questions
Example Question #1 : Inverse Functions
Find the inverse of the following function:
In order to find the inverse of the function, we need to switch the x- and y-variables.
After switching the variables, we have the following:
Now solve for the y-variable. Start by subtracting 10 from both sides of the equation.
Divide both sides of the equation by 4.
Rearrange and solve.
Example Question #1 : Find The Inverse Of A Function
Find the inverse of,
.
In order to find the inverse, switch the x and y variables in the function then solve for y.
Switching variables we get,
.
Then solving for y to get our final answer.
Example Question #2 : Find The Inverse Of A Function
Find the inverse of,
.
First, switch the variables making into
.
Then solve for y by taking the square root of both sides.
Example Question #2 : Find The Inverse Of A Function
Find the inverse of the following equation.
.
To find the inverse in this case, we need to switch our x and y variables and then solve for y.
Therefore,
becomes,
To solve for y we square both sides to get rid of the sqaure root.
We then subtract 2 from both sides and take the exponenetial of each side, leaving us with the final answer.
Example Question #4 : Matrices
Find the inverse of the following function.
To find the inverse of y, or
first switch your variables x and y in the equation.
Second, solve for the variable in the resulting equation.
Simplifying a number with 0 as the power, the inverse is
Example Question #181 : Algebra
Find the inverse of the following function.
Does not exist
To find the inverse of y, or
first switch your variables x and y in the equation.
Second, solve for the variable in the resulting equation.
And by setting each side of the equation as powers of base e,
Example Question #1 : Find The Inverse Of A Function
Find the inverse of the function.
To find the inverse we need to switch the variables and then solve for y.
Switching the variables we get the following equation,
.
Now solve for y.
Example Question #1044 : Pre Calculus
Find the inverse of
So we first replace every with an
and every
with a
.
Our resulting equation is:
Now we simply solve for y.
Subtract 9 from both sides:
Now divide both sides by 10:
The inverse of
is
Example Question #1045 : Pre Calculus
What is the inverse of
To find the inverse of a function we just switch the places of all and
with eachother.
So
turns into
Now we solve for
Divide both sides by
Example Question #1041 : Pre Calculus
If , what is its inverse function,
?
We begin by taking and changing the
to a
, giving us
.
Next, we switch all of our and
, giving us
.
Finally, we solve for by subtracting
from each side, multiplying each side by
, and dividing each side by
, leaving us with,
.
