Question
Question: If \(f:\lbrack 1,\infty) \rightarrow \lbrack 1,\infty)\) is defined as \(f(x) = 2^{x(x - 1)}\) then ...
If f:[1,∞)→[1,∞) is defined as f(x)=2x(x−1) then f−1(x) is equal to
A
(21)x(x−1)
B
21(1+1+4log2x)
C
21(1−1+4log2x)
D
Not defined
Answer
21(1+1+4log2x)
Explanation
Solution
Given f(x)=2x(x−1)⇒x(x−1)=log2f(x)
⇒x2−x−log2f(x)=0⇒x=21±1+4log2f(x)Only x=21+1+4log2f(x) lies in the domain
∴ f−1(x)=21[1+1+4log2x]
