The video tutorial explains how to find the inverse of a function algebraically through a series of steps. It covers four examples: a linear function, a linear function with fractions, a cubic function, and a square root function. The process involves replacing function notation, switching variables, and solving for the inverse. The tutorial also hints at checking the inverse using function composition, which will be covered in a subsequent lesson.

What is the first step in finding the inverse of a function algebraically?

• Check the inverse using composition

• Replace function notation with y

• Solve for y

• Switch the x and y variables

In the example of the linear function, what is the inverse of f(x) = 4x + 5?

• f^(-1)(x) = 4x - 5

• f^(-1)(x) = (x - 5) / 4

• f^(-1)(x) = (x + 5) / 4

• f^(-1)(x) = 4(x - 5)

In the example with fractions, what is the inverse of G(x) = 1/3y + 25?

• G^(-1)(x) = 3x + 25

• G^(-1)(x) = x/3 - 25

• G^(-1)(x) = 3x - 25

• G^(-1)(x) = x/3 + 25

How do you find the inverse of a cubic function like H(x) = 8x^3 - 1?

• All of the above

• Switch x and y, then solve for y

• Take the cube root of both sides

• Add 1 to both sides, then divide by 8
