Which of the following expressions is the inverse of the function y = 2x − 6? y equals quantity x minus 6 divided by 2 y equals quantity x plus 6 divided by 2 y = 2x + 6 y = �2x + 6

Verified Answer :

y equals quantity x plus 6 divided b

Answer:

B. \(y=\frac{x+6}{2}\)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given an equation \(y=2x-6\). We are asked to find the inverse of our given equation.

To find inverse of our given equation, we will interchange x and y variables and solve for y as shown below:

\(x=2y-6\)

Switch sides:

\(2y-6=x\)

Add 6 on both sides:

\(2y-6+6=x+6\)

\(2y=x+6\)

Divide both sides by 2:

\(\frac{2y}{2}=\frac{x+6}{2}\)

\(y=\frac{x+6}{2}\)

Therefore, the inverse of our given equation would be \(y=\frac{x+6}{2}\) and option B is the correct choice.
