The domain of the inverse of a function is the range of the original function

so find the range of f(x)
this is lowest to highest
we got the vertex is at (0,4)
and it goes to infinity
so range is from 4 to infinity

inverse
replace f(x) with y
switch x and y
solve for y
replace y with finverse

f(x)=x^2+4
y=x^2+4
x=y^2+4
x-4=y^2
y=√(x-4)
f⁻¹(x)=√(x-4)

inverse is f⁻¹(x)=√(x-4)
the domain is x≥4

To find the inverse let
y = x^2 + 4
x^2 = y - 4
x = sqrt(y - 4)

inverse f-1(x) = sqrt( x - 4)

the domain of x^2 + 4 is all real x

the domain of f-1(x) is x>= 4

Jessica wants to calculate her grade in her accounting class.she has four test grades (82, 65, 71, and 77) and a homework grade

Aleks04 [339]

To solve the problem, get the percentage of each test by multiplying the score and the percentage then add it all up:

82 * .25 (highest test grade) + 65* .15 (lowest test grade) + 71*.20 (each test remaining) + 77*.20 (each test remaining) + 92*.20 (homework grade)

= 20.5 + 9.75 + 14.2 + 15.4 + 18.4 = 78.25 or 78% in whole number
