Answer:

y=ln(x/(1-x))

Explanation:

y=e^x/(1+e^x)

Cross multiply

y(1+e^x)=e^x

Distribute

y+ye^x=e^x

Put anything with x on with side and everything without x on opposing side:

y=e^x-ye^x

Factor right hand side

y=(1-y)e^x

Divide both sides by (1-y)

y/(1-y)=e^x

Use natural log.

ln(y/(1-y))=x

The inverse is

y=ln(x/(1-x))
