Use the left and right arrow keys to trace the curve, up and down to jump between key points, and plus and minus to zoom.
| Point | x | y |
|---|---|---|
| x-intercept | −0.45 | 0 |
| y-intercept | 0 | 1 |
Step-by-step solution
4 stepsTo find where is the inverse of , we use the formula for the derivative of an inverse function:
where .
Find the value of such that .
We set :
By inspection, we can test integer values for .
If :So, is the value for which . This means .
