Question

PLEASE HELP!!!! WILL GIVE BRAIN I PROMISE.

Answer 1

No, they are not inverses.

Explanation:

To find out if this are inverses we will have to switch the x and y in one of the equations. Let's do it with the second equation:

(Remember that f(x)/g(x) and y are virtually the same)

y = -4x + 2

Switch x and y

x = -4y + 2

Now solve for y

x - 2 = -4y

`-(x)/(4) + (2)/(4) = y\\-(x)/(4) + (1)/(2) = y`

Therefore, the 2 functions in the question are not inverses of each other because the actual inverse has a negative in front of the -x/4.

I hope this helps!!
