Given the function f(x) = 5(x + 4) - 6, solve for the inverse function when x = 19.
72, 1, 84, 68
Solution:
Given Function f(x) :
5(x + 4) - 6
f(x) = 5x + 14
Let f(x) = y
⇒ y = 5x + 14
On interchanging the variables,
⇒ x = (y - 14)/ 5
If f(x) = y, x = f -1(y)
f -1(y) = (y - 14)/5
f -1(x) = (x - 14)/ 5
Inverse function f -1(x) = (x - 14)/ 5
Inverse function when x = 19 is
f -1(19) = (19 - 14)/ 5
f -1(19) = 5/5 = 1
Hence, 2nd option is the correct answer.
Given the function f(x) = 5(x + 4) - 6, solve for the inverse function when x = 19.
Summary:
Given the function f(x) = 5(x + 4) - 6, for the inverse function when x = 19, f-1(x) is 1. Hence, second option is the correct answer.
