To find:-

  • The inverse of f(x) = 4x³ - 2 .

Answer:-

Given function to us is ,


\implies f(x) = 4x^3 - 2 \\

Replace f(x) with y as ,


\implies y = 4x^3 - 2 \\

Interchange x and y , and then solve for y to find out the inverse.


\implies x = 4y^3 - 2 \\


\implies x + 2 = 4y^3 \\


\implies 4y^3 = x + 2 \\


\implies y^3=(x+2)/(4) \\


\implies y =\sqrt[3]{(x+2)/(4)} \\

Replace
y = f^(-1)(x)


\implies \underline{\underline{ f^(-1)(x) = \sqrt[3]{(x+2)/(4)} }} \\

and we are done!

Answer: C

Explanation:

Rewrite the equation as: y=4x³-2

Swap x & y:

x=4y³-2

Solve for y:

x+2=4y³

(x+2)/4=y³

last step i can't show in here
