What is the inverse of the function

To find the inverse, swap the x's and y's and solve for y. Remember that a(x) represents y

y = - 2 given

x = - 2 x's and y's swapped

x + 2 = added 2 to both sides

y(x + 2) = 1 multiplied y on both sides

y = divided (x + 2) on both sides

=

a(x) = 1/x - 2

or

y = 1/x - 2

Switch x and y to find the inverse function

x = 1/y - 2

1/y = x + 2

y = 1 / (x + 2)

Answer

a^-1(x) = 1 / (x + 2)
