The correct Answer is:
To solve the given problems, we need to determine if the functions are invertible and then find their inverses if they are. A function is invertible if it is both one-to-one (injective) and onto (surjective). ### Part (a): Finding the inverse of \( f(x) = \frac{3x + 5}{2} \) 1. **Check if the function is one-to-one:** - Assume \( f(x_1) = f(x_2) \). - This means \( \frac{3x_1 + 5}{2} = \frac{3x_2 + 5}{2} \). - Multiply both sides by 2: \[ 3x_1 + 5 = 3x_2 + 5 \] - Subtract 5 from both sides: \[ 3x_1 = 3x_2 \] - Divide by 3: \[ x_1 = x_2 \] - Since \( x_1 = x_2 \), the function is one-to-one. 2. **Check if the function is onto:** - Let \( y \) be any real number. We need to find \( x \) such that \( f(x) = y \): \[ \frac{3x + 5}{2} = y \] - Multiply both sides by 2: \[ 3x + 5 = 2y \] - Subtract 5 from both sides: \[ 3x = 2y - 5 \] - Divide by 3: \[ x = \frac{2y - 5}{3} \] - Since \( x \) can be expressed in terms of \( y \), the function is onto. 3. **Conclusion:** - Since \( f(x) \) is both one-to-one and onto, it is invertible. 4. **Find the inverse:** - From the equation \( y = \frac{3x + 5}{2} \), we already found: \[ x = \frac{2y - 5}{3} \] - Thus, the inverse function is: \[ f^{-1}(y) = \frac{2y - 5}{3} \] ### Part (b): Finding the inverse of \( f(x) = \frac{4x - 3}{5} \) 1. **Check if the function is one-to-one:** - Assume \( f(x_1) = f(x_2) \). - This means \( \frac{4x_1 - 3}{5} = \frac{4x_2 - 3}{5} \). - Multiply both sides by 5: \[ 4x_1 - 3 = 4x_2 - 3 \] - Add 3 to both sides: \[ 4x_1 = 4x_2 \] - Divide by 4: \[ x_1 = x_2 \] - Since \( x_1 = x_2 \), the function is one-to-one. 2. **Check if the function is onto:** - Let \( y \) be any real number. We need to find \( x \) such that \( f(x) = y \): \[ \frac{4x - 3}{5} = y \] - Multiply both sides by 5: \[ 4x - 3 = 5y \] - Add 3 to both sides: \[ 4x = 5y + 3 \] - Divide by 4: \[ x = \frac{5y + 3}{4} \] - Since \( x \) can be expressed in terms of \( y \), the function is onto. 3. **Conclusion:** - Since \( f(x) \) is both one-to-one and onto, it is invertible. 4. **Find the inverse:** - From the equation \( y = \frac{4x - 3}{5} \), we already found: \[ x = \frac{5y + 3}{4} \] - Thus, the inverse function is: \[ f^{-1}(y) = \frac{5y + 3}{4} \] ### Summary of Results: - For \( f(x) = \frac{3x + 5}{2} \), the inverse is \( f^{-1}(y) = \frac{2y - 5}{3} \). - For \( f(x) = \frac{4x - 3}{5} \), the inverse is \( f^{-1}(y) = \frac{5y + 3}{4} \).
