Question

The function f(x)=x+13 is one-to-one. a. Find an equation for f^-1(x) the inverse function. b. Verify that your equation is correct by showing that f(f^-1(x))=x and f^-1(f(x))=x a. Select the correct choice below and fill in the answer box(es)to complete your choice. (Simplify your answer. Use integers or fractions for any numbers in the expression.) A. f^-1(x)=square , for xneq square B. f^-1(x)=square for xleqslant square C. f^-1(x)=square , for all x D. f^-1(x)=square , for xgeqslant square b. Verify that the equation is correct. f(f^-1(x))=f(square ) and f^-1(f(x))=f^-1(square ) Substitute. =square =square Simplify. The equation is square
