Q. What is the inverse of the function f(x)=−6x−7? f−1(x)=□
Understand Inverse Function: Understand the concept of an inverse function.The inverse function, denoted as f−1(x), swaps the roles of the input and output of the original function f(x). To find the inverse, we solve for x in terms of y and then swap x and y.
Write Original Function: Write the original function with y instead of f(x).y=−6x−7
Swap Variables: Swap x and y to begin finding the inverse.x=−6y−7
Solve for Inverse: Solve for y to find the inverse function.Add 7 to both sides of the equation:x+7=−6yNow, divide both sides by −6 to solve for y:y=−6x+7
Write Inverse Function: Write the inverse function.The inverse function is f−1(x)=−6x+7.
