To find the inverse of a function, we make the independent variable the subject of the formula.
Thus, the inverse of the given function is evaluated as follows.
[tex]f(x)=-8x+4 \\ y=-8x+4 \\ -8x=y-4 \\ x= \frac{y-4}{-8} \\ f^{-1}(x)=\frac{x-4}{-8}[/tex]
From the work show, it can be seen that Talib's work is correct.
Thus, the inverse of the given function is evaluated as follows.
[tex]f(x)=-8x+4 \\ y=-8x+4 \\ -8x=y-4 \\ x= \frac{y-4}{-8} \\ f^{-1}(x)=\frac{x-4}{-8}[/tex]
From the work show, it can be seen that Talib's work is correct.
For this case what we are going to do is describe the work part by part:
1) Talib made the correct variable change in the first step.
2) Talib made a correct clearance in the second step by passing the number 4 subtracting.
3) Taliz made a correct clearance in the third step by passing the number -8 dividing.
4) Taliz made an incorrect variable change in the last step.
The correct variable change is:
[tex] f(x)^{-1}=\frac{x-4}{-8} [/tex]
Answer:
Error in the last step, the correct solution is:
[tex] f(x)^{-1}=\frac{x-4}{-8} [/tex]
