You can put this solution on YOUR website! f(x)= x-12/5 is shown.
Which expression is equivalent to g(x) in the equation f(g(x))=x
-----
Since f[g(x)] = x , g(x) is the inverse of f(x).
-----
Determine the inverse of f(x)::
1st:: Interchange x and y to get:: x = y-12/5
2nd:: Solve for "y:: y = 5x+12
------------------
a.) -5/x-12
b.)5/x-12
c.)5x-12
d.)5x+12
----------------
Ans: d
