The surface area of a sphere is S(x) = 4πx2, where x is the length of the radius of the sphere. Restrict the domain to create a one-to-one function. Find and describe the inverse function
Question
Answer:
Given that the surface area of the sphere is S(x)=4πx², the inverse function will be obtain as follows: make x the subject of the functionS(x)/(4π)=x²
get the square root of both sides:
x=√[S(x)/(4π)]
replace x by S⁻¹(x) and S(x) by x
this will give us the inverse as :
S⁻¹(x)=√[x/(4π)]
The above implies that the inverse is the square root of the radius divided by 4π
