Note: Your question is missing some details. After a little research, I am able to find the complete question which is as follows:
If the function f(x) = mx + b has an inverse function, which statement must be true?
a) m=/0
b) m = 0
c) b=/0
d ) b = 0
Answer:
The value of [tex]m[/tex] cannot be equal to 0. In other words,
[tex]m\:\ne \:0[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Considering the function
[tex]f(x) = mx + b[/tex]
Lets find the inverse of this function.
Suppose
- [tex]y=f\left(x\right)[/tex]
- [tex]y=mx+b[/tex]
Lets exchange the variables [tex]x[/tex] and [tex]y[/tex] such as
[tex]x=my+b[/tex]
Lets isolate the variable [tex]y[/tex]
[tex]my=x-b[/tex]
[tex]y=\frac{x-b}{m}[/tex]
Suppose
[tex]f\left(x\right)^{-1}=y[/tex]
As
[tex]y=\frac{x-b}{m}[/tex]
So, inverse function is
[tex]f\left(x\right)^{-1}=\frac{x-b}{m}[/tex]
As the denominator [tex]m[/tex] cannot be zero in the inverse function.
Thus, the value of [tex]m[/tex] cannot be equal to 0. In other words,
[tex]m\:\ne \:0[/tex]
