Answer


y⁻¹ = ∛(4x+8)



Step-by-step explanation

y=(1/4)x³ - 2.

To find the inverse of this equation, you first make x the subject of the formular.

y=(1/4)x³ - 2

Multiply both sides by 4;

4y = x³ - 8

Add 8 on both sides of the equation;

4y + 8 = x³

x³ = 4y + 8

Apply the cube root on both sides to get the value of x;

x = ∛(4y+8)


The inverse of y=(1/4)x³ - 2 is;

y⁻¹ = ∛(4x+8)
