Q. What is the inverse of the function f(x)=x+96x−5? f−1(x)=□
Replace with y: To find the inverse of the function f(x)=x+96x−5, we first replace f(x) with y for simplicity.y=x+96x−5
Interchange x and y: Next, we interchange the roles of x and y to find the inverse. This means we replace y with x and x with y in the equation.x=y+96y−5
Solve for y: Now, we solve for y. To do this, we first multiply both sides of the equation by (y+9) to eliminate the denominator.x(y+9)=6y−5
Multiply by (y+9): Distribute x on the left side of the equation.xy+9x=6y−5
Distribute x: We want to isolate y, so we move all terms involving y to one side and the constant terms to the other side.xy−6y=−5−9x
Isolate y: Factor out y from the left side of the equation.y(x−6)=−5−9x
Factor out y: Divide both sides by (x−6) to solve for y.y=x−6−5−9x
Divide by (x−6): This is the inverse function, so we replace y with f−1(x).f−1(x)=x−6−5−9x
