If f(x) = x^2 -1, what is the equation for f–1(x)?

The inverse is ±sqrt(x+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = x^2 -1

Exchange x and y

x = y^2 -1

Solve for y

Add 1 for each side

x+1 = y^2-1+1

x+1 = y^2

Take the square root of each side

±sqrt(x+1) = sqrt(y^2)

±sqrt(x+1) = y

The inverse is ±sqrt(x+1)

f^-1(x) = sqrt(x + 1)

Or

f^-1(x) = -sqrt(x + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = x² - 1

x² = y + 1

x = +/- sqrt(y + 1)

Interswitch variables:

f^-1(x) = sqrt(x + 1)

Or

f^-1(x) = -sqrt(x + 1)

Where sqrt: square root

i believe the correct answer is option 4.principalities were small territories that were run by russian rulers.

which statement correctly defines principalities in northern asia in the 1200s? principalities were small territories that were run by russian rulers.

hope i could ! : )
