Question 415948: This is the only inverse-related section, so, here goes:
Find the inverse function of Y = (exp)3(sqrt)2x+1
I get that you turn f(x) into Y, and replace the X with Y, and vice versa; then move the (exp)3 onto the Y to get rid of the square root. So, it then becomes:
X^3 = 2Y+1
After that, I'm lost. If I subtract the 1, it becomes X^3-1 = 2Y, but, I can't divide by 2 because there needs to be an X in the denominator.

y = cbrt(2x+1)
----
1st: Interchange to get:
x = cbrt(2y+1)
cube both sides:
x^3 = 2y+1
---
2y+1 = x^3
2y = x^3 -1
y = (x^3-1)/2
==================
That is the inverse.

f%28x%29=root%283%2C2x%2B1%29


y=root%283%2C2x%2B1%29


x=root%283%2C2y%2B1%29


x%5E3=2y%2B1


x%5E3-1=2y


%28x%5E3-1%29%2F2=y


y=%28x%5E3-1%29%2F2


So the inverse function is
