Explanation:

For the first one, you have the -2 step right, but now we're at

f(x) -2 = x³

We have to take the cube root of each side to solve for x, which looks like

∛(f(x)-2) = x or (f(x)-2)^(1/3) = x. This makes our inverse function ∛(x-2) Putting a 3 to the side multiplies the value by 3, and doesn't cube root it.

For your next incorrect answer, you simply need to plug the inverse function that I just gave in.

For the one after that, the question is asking to plug in f(x). We know that our inverse is ∛(x-2) , and the question is asking to plug f(x) in for x here. Thus, in the box, simply put down x³+2

For the last incorrect answer, we need to find the cube root of something, and by plugging in f(x) into the previous one, we are left with ∛(x³+2-2). Therefore, in the box, simply put down x³ as that is what's left
