Question

Find the inverse of the function f(x) = 3x + 2. State the answer in slope-intercept form.

Answer 1

To find the inverse of the function, first rewrite the equation as y = 3x + 2.

From there, switch the x and y variables.

X = 3y +2

Then, solve for x.

X - 2 = 3y

1/3x - 2/3 = y

So, in slope-intercept form, this equation would be y = 1/3x - 2/3
