Q. What is the inverse of the function h(x)=25x+4? h−1(x)=
Switching roles and setting up equation: To find the inverse of the function h(x)=25x+4, we need to switch the roles of x and h(x) and then solve for the new x. Let y=h(x), so we have y=25x+4. Now we switch x and y to find the inverse: x=25y+4.
Isolating the term with y: Next, we need to solve for y. To do this, we first subtract 4 from both sides of the equation to isolate the term with y on one side.x−4=(25)y
Solving for y: Now, we multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of (25), which is (52), to solve for y.(52)(x−4)=y
Simplifying the equation: Simplify the equation to get the inverse function.h−1(x)=52x−52⋅4h−1(x)=52x−58
