Question 34 • Mathematics I

What is the inverse of the function f of x is equal to x plus 3 ?

Answer
A
h of x is equal to 1 third x minus 3
B
h of x is equal to x plus 3
C
h of x is equal to x minus 3
D
h of x is equal to 1 third x plus 3

Explanation

Write the function as y = x + 3, then switch x and y to find the inverse: x = y + 3. Solving for y gives y = x − 3, so the inverse is h(x) = x − 3, choice B. The inverse undoes adding 3 by subtracting 3.
