To find an inverse, we can follow these steps:
- set f(x) equal to y.
- solve for x
- switch the x and y
- set y equal to f^-1 (x) and you have your answer.
Let's follow these steps:
[tex]f(x) = 7x+12=y[/tex]
[tex]y = 7x+12[/tex]
[tex]y-12=7x[/tex]
[tex]x = \frac{y-12}{7}[/tex]
Now, we switch the y and the x:
[tex]y = \frac{x-12}{7}[/tex]
And set that equal to f^-1(x). Therefore, your answer is:
[tex]f^{-1}(x) = \frac{x-12}{7}[/tex]
Hope I could help you Jermaine! :)
To find the inverse function we must admit that f(x) = x and x = y. That is
[tex]\mathsf{x=7y+12}[/tex]
Now, we need to isolate the y
[tex]\mathsf{7y=x-12}\\\\\\\mathsf{y=\dfrac{x-12}{7} }[/tex]
Like this
[tex]\mathsf{f^{-1}(x)=\dfrac{x-12}{7}}[/tex]
Hope this helps, good studies.
