Answer:

Proved!

Explanation:

For two functions f(x) and g(x) to be inverses of each other then;

f(g(x)) = x and g(f(x)) = x condition must be satisfied.

Checking: A. f(x) = 7x³ + 10 and g(x) = ∛
(x - 10)/(7)

So f(g(x)) = 7(
\sqrt[3]{(x- 10)/7})³ + 10

We get; 7(
(x - 10)/(7)) + 10 = x - 10 + 10 = x (*This is correct!)

So g(f(x)) =
\sqrt[3]{((7x^3 + 10) - 10)/7}

Ten cancels out and we are left with;


\sqrt[3]{7x^3/7} =
\sqrt[3]{x^3} = x (* This is also correct!)
