We have been given graph of function [tex]y=f(x)[/tex]. We are asked to find the value of [tex]f^{-1}(6)[/tex] from the graph of [tex]y=f(x)[/tex].
We know that to find an inverse function is a function that reverses another function. A function f(x) gives an output of y, when we input some value of x. The inverse of f(x) will give the same value of x from value of y.
So to find inverse of a function we need to switch all x and y values.
We can see that [tex]f(4)=6[/tex], so to to find value of [tex]f^{-1}(6)[/tex], we have to switch x and y values.
After switching x and y values, we will get:
[tex]f^{-1}(6)=4[/tex]
Therefore, [tex]f^{-1}(6)=4[/tex].
