Q. Question 11 of 11, Step 1 of 1Find a formula for the inverse of the following function, if possible.s(x)=55x+5
Replace with y: To find the inverse of the function s(x)=55(x)+5, we need to express x in terms of s(x). Let's start by replacing s(x) with y to make the algebra clearer.y=55(x)+5
Isolate x: Next, we need to isolate the term containing x on one side of the equation. To do this, we subtract 5 from both sides of the equation.y−5=55(x)
Eliminate coefficient: Now, we need to eliminate the coefficient of the 5th root. We do this by dividing both sides of the equation by 5.5y−5=5(x)
Remove 5th root: To remove the 5th root, we raise both sides of the equation to the power of 5.(5y−5)5=x
Express x in terms of y: We have now expressed x in terms of y. The inverse function is found by swapping x and y. So the inverse function, denoted as s−1(x), is:s−1(x)=(5x−5)5
