The inverse of f(x) = x2 – 3 is

f-() = x2 +3
:: - (2) = V2 + 3
:: f-(x) = V2 - 3
:: f-1 (2) = 1 - 3

Answer:

  • f ⁻¹(x) =
    √(x + 3)

Explanation:

Find the inverse of f(x) = x² - 3

Substitute x with y and f(x) with x and solve for y:

  • x = y² - 3
  • y² = x + 3

  • √(y^2) =
    √(x + 3)
  • y =
    √(x + 3)

Replace y with f⁻¹(x):

  • f ⁻¹(x) =
    √(x + 3)
