Question 13 • Algebra II

Which equation is the inverse of open paren x minus 4 close paren squared minus 2 thirds is equal to 6 y minus 12 ?

Answer
A
negative open paren x minus 4 close paren squared minus 2 thirds is equal to negative 6 y plus 12
B
y is equal to 4 plus or minus square root of 6 x minus 34 thirds end root
C
y is equal to 1 sixth x squared minus 4 thirds x plus 43 ninths
D
y is equal to negative 4 plus or minus square root of 6 x minus 34 thirds end root

Explanation

To find the inverse, switch x and y in the original equation: (y − 4)² − 2/3 = 6x − 12. Add 2/3 to both sides to get (y − 4)² = 6x − 34/3, then take the square root and solve for y: y = 4 ± √(6x − 34/3). This matches choice B, y equals 4 plus or minus the square root of 6x − 34/3.
