(v). h-1(x)
h =2 x +6
x

Step 1: Let y = h ( x ¿ , y = 2 x +6
x

Step 2: make x the subject of the formula: xy = 2 x +6


xy - 2 x = 6

x (y-2) = 6

x =6
y-2

Step 3: Replace “ x ” with h-1(x) and change “y” to “ x


h-1(x)= 6
y -2

h-1(x)= 6
x -2
4. h(x) = 2x + 3 find h-1(x)
4x – 5

Step 1: Let y = h ( x ¿ , y = 2x + 3
4x – 5

Step 2: make x the subject of the formula : y = (4x – 5 ) = 2x + 3

4 xy−5 y =2 x +3
4 xy - 2 x = 5y + 3
x (4y-2) = 5y + 3

x = 5y + 3
4y – 2
Step 3: Replace “ x ” with h-1(x) and change “y” to “ x
h-1(x) = 5 y + 3
