Explanation:


y = 10 {}^(x)

Swap y and x


x = 10 {}^(y)

The opposite of a exponent with base b, is a logarithm with base b.


log_(10)(x) = log_(10)(10 {}^(y) )

By definition, since log and exponent are inverses of each other and they have the same bases. This composition will spit out the variable , y


log_(10)(x) = y

Using notation


f {}^( - 1) (x) = log_(10)(x)
