Are f(x) and g(x) inverse functions across the domain [3,+∞)?

A

Explanation:

For functions to be inverse, it must be true that f( g(x) ) = x and g( f(x) ) = x.

But for F( G(x) ), we have √( G(x) - 3 ) + 8

= √( (x+8)² - 3 - 3 ) + 8

= √( (x+8)² - 6 ) + 8

This -6 part should be cancelled out for functions to work out but we cannot do that, therefore F(x) and G(x) are not inverse.

right

step-by-step explanation:

since your problem is x^4 = 81, what you have to undeo is the "to the fourth power" part.

the inverse (opposite operation) of "to the fourth power" is "to the fourth root".

  (x^4) ^ ¼   = 81 ^ ¼  

  81 = 3^4     so (3 ^ 4) ^ ¼   =   3 ^ 1   = 3

by hand: (3 ^ 4) ^ ¼   =   3 ^ (4 x ¼) = 3 ^ 1   = 3   (when you take a power to a power, multiply the exponents.)

or, do it by calculator. one way of finding the fourth root is to use ^ (1/4)
