QuestionFind the inverse of the one-to-one function f(x)=x+53f(x)=\sqrt[3]{x+5}.

STEP 1

Assumptions1. The function ff is one-to-one, meaning each output is produced by exactly one input. . We are asked to find the inverse of the function f(x)=x+53f(x)=\sqrt[3]{x+5}.

STEP 2

To find the inverse of a function, we first replace the function notation f(x)f(x) with yy.
y=x+5y = \sqrt[]{x+5}

STEP 3

Next, we swap xx and yy to reflect the idea that the inverse function undoes the action of the original function.
x=y+53x = \sqrt[3]{y+5}

STEP 4

Now, we need to solve this equation for yy to express the inverse function. To do this, we first cube both sides of the equation to eliminate the cube root.
x3=(y+)x^3 = (y+)

STEP 5

Finally, we subtract5 from both sides of the equation to isolate yy.
y=x35y = x^3 -5This is the inverse of the function f(x)=x+53f(x)=\sqrt[3]{x+5}. We denote it as f1(x)f^{-1}(x).
f1(x)=x35f^{-1}(x) = x^3 -5
