Question 860321: I am struggling to do my homework, it's asking me to write the inverse of a one-to-one function using the notation f^-1(x). The original equation is f(x)=x^3.
I thought I would multiply the cube with the power of 1/3 so the exponent will have a result of 1 but I figured that if I do that the left side of the equation will have an exponent of 1/3, so I am not sure what to do, please help me on this problem. Thank you.

f%28x%29=x%5E3;
Inverse would be x=y%5E3
y=root%283%2Cx%29
