If 4 ⁻¹ x+ ⁻¹ x= then x=
Options
- A3 2
- B0
- C1 2
- D1 2
Correct answer
C. 1 2
Step-by-step solution
The equation 4 ⁻¹ x + ⁻¹ x = simplifies using the identity ⁻¹ x + ⁻¹ x = 2 . 4 ⁻¹ x + ⁻¹ x = 3 ⁻¹ x + ( ⁻¹ x + ⁻¹ x) = 3 ⁻¹ x + 2 = Isolating the inverse sine term gives 3 ⁻¹ x = - 2 = 2 . Solving yields ⁻¹ x = 6 , so x = ( 6 ) = 1 2 . Answer: x = 1 2 (Option C)
