Question

which represents the inverse of the function f(x)=2x+1?

Answer 1

f(x) = 2x + 1

To find the inverse, f^-1(x), of the function:

Put the function as an equation:

y = 2x + 1

Then move x to the left and y to the right;

x = 2y + 1

Then solve for y;

y = x/2 - 1/2

f^-1(x) = y

f^-1(x) = x/2 - 1/2
