Inverse function for f (x) = square root 2x-6

Two functions f(x) and g(x) are inverses if:

f(g(x)) = x = g(f(x))

The solution is:

Now we want to find the inverse function to:

Because this is a square root function, we know that the inverse must be a quadratic function, so let's try with something like:

Now we can use the first property to get:

Then we must have:

2*a  =1

a = 1/2

And:

-6*a + c = 0

-6*(1/2) + c = 0

-3 + c = 0

c = 4

Then the inverse function is:

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)= sqrt(2x-6)

y =sqrt(2x-6)

To find the inverse function, we interchange the x and y and solve for y

x = sqrt(2y-6)

Square each side

x^2 = sqrt(2y-6)^2

x^2 = 2y-6

Add 6 to each to each side

x^2 +6 = 2y-6+6

x^2 +6 = 2y

Divide each side by 2

(x^2 +6)/2 = 2y/2

(x^2 +6)/2 = y

The inverse function is

(x^2 +6)/2

or  1/2 x^2 +3
