Which equation is the inverse of y = 2x2 – 8?

y = plus-or-minus StartRoot StartFraction x + 8 Over 2 EndFraction EndRoot
y = StartFraction plus-or-minus StartRoot x + 8 EndRoot Over 2 EndFraction
y = plus-or-minus StartRoot StartFraction x Over 2 EndFraction + 8 EndRoot
y = StartFraction plus-or-minus StartRoot x EndRoot Over 2 EndFraction + 4

Answer:

y = (√x/2) ± 2

Explanation:

Here, we want to get the inverse of the given function

y = 2x^2 - 8

make x the subject of the formula

y + 8 = 2x^2

Divide through by 2

y/2 + 4 = x^2

x = √y/2 ± 2

Now switch place for x and y

y = (√x/2) ± 2
