Question

Y = (x – 6)2 - 4
Find the inverse

Answer 1

y = (x + 16)/2

Explanation:

y = (x - 6)2 - 4 Switch the x and y variables

x = (y - 6)2 - 4 Solve the (y - 6)2

x = 2y - 12 - 4 Combine like terms

x = 2y - 16 Isolate the y variable

x + 16 = 2y

y = (x + 16)/2 <----- This is your answer

Hope this helps!
