If we want to verify that g ( x ) is the inverse of f ( x ) we have to show that:

( f ° g ) = ( g ° f )

f ( g ( x ) )=  3 · ( 1/3 x ) = x

g ( f ( x ) ) = 1/3 · ( 3 x ) = x

Answer:

C ) 1/3 ( 3 x )

Answer:

C. 1/3(3x)

Step-by-step explanation:

To verify if two functions are inverse, we have to find the composition of such functions, that is:

[tex]f(g(x))[/tex]; which results must be the variable [tex]x[/tex] to be inverse functions.

We know that: [tex]f(x)=3x;g(x)=\frac{1}{3}x[/tex].

Replacing on the composition:

[tex]f(g(x))=3(\frac{1}{3}x)=x[/tex]

Therefore, the expression that has to be used to verify that these functions are inverse is C.
