Q. Find the inverse function of the function f(x)=(3x)57 on the domain x≥0.f−1(x)=3x75f−1(x)=3x75f−1(x)=(3x)75f−1(x)=(3x)75
Rewrite with y: To find the inverse function, we need to switch the roles of x and y in the original function and then solve for y. Let's start by rewriting the function with y: f(x)=(3x)57 y=(3x)57 Now we switch x and y: x=(3y)57
Switch x and y: Next, we need to isolate y. To do this, we raise both sides of the equation to the reciprocal of 57, which is 75:(x)75=((3y)57)75
Isolate y: When we raise a power to a power, we multiply the exponents. In this case, (57)×(75)=1, so we are left with:x75=3y
Divide by 3: Now we divide both sides by 3 to solve for y:y=3(x)75
Final Inverse Function: We have found the inverse function. We can write it as:f−1(x)=3(x)75
