Please Im Dying To Get Some Help On This Question class=

Sagot :

The two(2) given functions are:

[tex]\begin{gathered} f(x)=-5x+9 \\ g(x)=-\frac{1}{5}x-9 \end{gathered}[/tex]

According to definition of Inverse function;

[tex]f\mleft\lbrace g(x\mright)\}=x\text{ and g}\mleft\lbrace f(x\mright)\}=x\text{ if f and g are both inverse of each other}[/tex]

Thus,

[tex]\begin{gathered} f\mleft\lbrace g(x\mright)\rbrack=f(-\frac{1}{5}x-9) \\ \Rightarrow-5(-\frac{1}{5}x-9)+9 \\ \Rightarrow x+45+9 \\ f\mleft\lbrace g(x\mright)\}=x+54 \\ so,\text{ f}\mleft\lbrace g(x\mright)\}\ne x \end{gathered}[/tex]

Hence, they are NOT inverse of each other.

The correct answer is NO
