Question

Find f o g and g o f to determine if f and g are inverse functions. If they are not inverses, pick the function that would be the inverse with f(x). F(x) = -4x + 1; g(x) = (x+1)/4 Choices: a. G(x) has to be: (1-x)/4 b. Inverses c. G(x) has to be: 1/(4 - x) d. G(x) has to be: x/4

Answer 1

G(x) = (1 - x)/4

is the inverse function required.

Explanation:

Given F(x) = -4x + 1

Let y = F(x)

Then y = -4x + 1

=> y - 1 = -4x

4x = 1 - y

x = (1 - y)/4

That is, the inverse is (1 - x)/4

Therefore, G(x) has to be (1 - x)/4
