Finding Inverses
Find an equation for the inve
3.
y = 3x + 2

Answer 1

First we swap our x and y variable, so we get

x = 3y + 2

Then, we solve for y
We can first subtract 2 on both sides

x - 2 = 3y

Then we can divide by 3 on both sides to get

x/3 - 2/3 = y

So our final equation is

y = x/3 - 2/3
