Answer: To find the inverse of a function, we first need to make sure that the function is one-to-one, meaning that no two different input values map to the same output value.

If the function B is one-to-one, we can find the inverse by switching the x and y values, and then solving for y.

y = B^-1(x)

We can then use algebraic manipulation to solve for y.

For example, if B(x) = 2x + 1, we can find the inverse by switching x and y:

x = 2y + 1

Solving for y:

y = (x - 1)/2

So the inverse function of B(x) = 2x + 1 is B^-1(x) = (x - 1)/2

Please note that if the function B is not one-to-one, it will not have an inverse.
