PLZ HELP: Write the inverse function for the function, ƒ(x) = 1/2x + 4. Then, find the value of ƒ -1(4). Type your answers in the box.

Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
let y = f(x) and rearrange making x the subject, that is
y = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x + 4 ( multiply through by 2 to clear the fraction )
2y = x + 8 ( subtract 8 from both sides )
2y - 8 = x
Change y back into terms of x with x = [tex]f^{-1}[/tex] (x) , then
[tex]f^{-1}[/tex](x ) = 2x - 8
[tex]f^{-1}[/tex](4) = 2(4) - 8 = 8 - 8 = 0
