QuestionLet f(x)=3x+4f(x)=-3 x+4. Then f1(x)=f^{-1}(x)=

Studdy Solution
Verify the inverse function by checking if f(f1(x))=x f(f^{-1}(x)) = x and f1(f(x))=x f^{-1}(f(x)) = x .
First, check f(f1(x)) f(f^{-1}(x)) :
f(x3+43)=3(x3+43)+4 f\left(-\frac{x}{3} + \frac{4}{3}\right) = -3\left(-\frac{x}{3} + \frac{4}{3}\right) + 4
Simplify:
=x4+4=x = x - 4 + 4 = x
Now, check f1(f(x)) f^{-1}(f(x)) :
f1(3x+4)=3x+43+43 f^{-1}(-3x + 4) = -\frac{-3x + 4}{3} + \frac{4}{3}
Simplify:
=x = x
Both conditions are satisfied, confirming that the inverse function is correct.
