The inverse of the function are respectively; f⁻¹(3) = 2 and f⁻¹(8) = 8.5
How to find the inverse of a Function?
The formula to find the equation of this function using two coordinates is;
(y - y1)/(x - x1) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
Using the first 2 coordinates, we have;
(y - 1)/(x + 1) = (3 - 1)/(2 + 1)
(y - 1)/(x + 1) = 2/3
3y - 3 = 2x + 2
3y = 2x + 5
y = ¹/₃(2x + 5)
Thus, the inverse is;
f⁻¹(x) = (3x - 5)/2
Thus;
f⁻¹(3) = (3*3 - 5)/2
f⁻¹(3) = 2
Similarly;
f⁻¹(x) = (3x - 5)/2
Thus;
f⁻¹(8) = (3*8 - 5)/2
f⁻¹(8) = 8.5
