f(x)= (x+1)/2
g(x)= 2x-1

Show your work to prove that the inverse of f(x) is g(x).

Show your work to evaluate g(f(x)).

Please help! I don't understand how to prove that they're inverse of eachother.

Answer:

  g(f(x)) = x . . . so the functions are inverses

Step-by-step explanation:

Two functions f and g are inverses of each other if ...

  g(f(x)) = x   or   f(g(x)) = x

We are asked to evaluate g(f(x)). That will be x if the functions are inverses.

  g(f(x)) = g((x+1)/2) = 2((x +1)/2) -1 = (x +1) -1

  g(f(x)) = x . . . . the functions are inverses
