Question

Identify the errors made in finding the inverse of
y = x2 + 12x.
x= y2 + 12x
y2 = x - 12x
y2=-11x
y=-11x, for x > 0
Describe the three errors?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

y = x2 + 12x.

x= y2 + 12x           would also be 12 y

y2 = x - 12x               would be -x

y2=-11x  

y=$\sqrt{-11x}$, for x > 0    negative  square root not possible
