If f(x) = 2x - 1 x + 5 , x -5 then f⁻¹(x) is equal to
Options
- Ax + 5 2x - 1 , x 1 2
- B5x + 1 2 - x , x 2
- C5x - 1 2 - x , x 2
- Dx - 5 2x + 1 , x - 1 2
Correct answer
B. 5x + 1 2 - x , x 2
Step-by-step solution
Let y = 2x - 1 x + 5 y(x + 5) = 2x - 1 xy + 5y = 2x - 1 x(y - 2) = -5y - 1 x = 5y + 1 2 - y Therefore, f⁻¹(x) = 5x + 1 2 - x , x 2 Answer: 5x + 1 2 - x , x 2
