Question 760895: Not sure if this is the right place to ask but I would like to know the inverse equation of y=2x+1

Easiest way to solve an inverse equation is to
change the x for the y.
y = 2x + 1
Change it to:
x = 2y + 1
Now, take 1 from both sides
x - 1 = 2y + 1 - 1
= x - 1 = 2y
Now divide both sides by 2
= (x - 1)/2 = 2y/2
= (x - 1)/ 2 = y
This is your inverse equation.
y = (x - 1)/2
Hope this helps.
:-)
