Given the function g(x) = 41x3 + a for some constant a, which describes the inverse function g–1(x)?

no restriction on the domain of g(x); inverse is g–1(x) = RootIndex 3 StartRoot StartFraction x minus a Over 41 EndFraction EndRoot
no restriction on the domain of g(x); inverse is g–1(x) = (StartFraction x minus a Over 41 EndFraction) cubed
domain of g(x) restricted to x ≥ 0; inverse is g–1(x) = RootIndex 3 StartRoot StartFraction x minus a Over 41 EndFraction EndRoot

Answer:

A. No restriction on the domain of g(x); inverse is g–1(x) = RootIndex 3 StartRoot StartFraction x minus a Over 41 EndFraction EndRoot

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function
g(x)=41x^3+a\\, we are to find the inverse of the function a shown below:

Ley y = g(x)


y=41x^3+a\\

replace y with x


x=41y^3+a\\

make y the subject of the formula:


x = 41y^3+a\\41y^3 = x-a\\y^3 = (x-a)/(41) \\y = \sqrt[3]{(x-a)/(41) }

Replace y with
g^(-1)(x)


g^(-1)(x) = \sqrt[3]{(x-a)/(41) }

Hence the inverse function
g^(-1)(x) = \sqrt[3]{(x-a)/(41) }

No restriction on the domain of g(x). Hence the correct option is A
