Evacuating the function and it's inverse can be shown to be equal to x by substitution

How to show the substitution

The given data includes

f(x) = ⁵√(5 - 4x)

f⁻¹(x) = (5 - x⁵) / 4

Substituting for x in f/9x) we have

f(x) = ⁵√(5 - 4((5 - x⁵) / 4 )


f(x) = \sqrt[5]{5-4(5-x^(5) )/(4) }


f(x) = \sqrt[5]{5-(5-x^(5)) } }


f(x) = \sqrt[5]{5-5+x^(5)}


f(x) = \sqrt[5]{x^(5)}

f(x) = x

Hence we can say that (f ° f⁻¹) (x) = x

To obtain the expression for the composition of the function of the inverse function of x, the following steps are necessary:

Step 1: Write out the expression for the function of x and the inverse function of x, as below:


\begin{gathered} f(x)=\sqrt[5]{5-4x} \\ ^{}f^(-1)(x)=(5-x^5)/(4) \end{gathered}

Step 2: Write out the expression for the composition of the function of the inverse function of x, as below:


(f^(-1)Of))(x)=^{}\frac{5-(\sqrt[5]{5-4x})^5}{4}

Thus, the above is how the expression for the composition of the function of the inverse function of x is to be written out
