Practice Questions

Answer all questions. Show your working in the grid spaces provided.
1.
If f(x) = 3x + 4, find the inverse function f⁻¹(x).
[2 marks]
2.
Calculate f⁻¹(10) for the function f(x) = 2x - 6.
[2 marks]
3.
Given the inverse function f⁻¹(x) = (x + 5) / 2, find the original function f(x).
[3 marks]
4.
Plot the graph of y = 2x on the grid. Then, sketch the graph of its inverse.
[3 marks]
5.
Construct a triangle on the grid with sides representing a sound wave where frequency is inversely proportional to wavelength. Use f(x) = 1000 / x to model this, with x representing wavelength.
[4 marks]
6.
A sound engineer uses the function f(x) = 12000 / x to determine the frequency (Hz) for a given wavelength (nm). Find the inverse function to determine wavelength from frequency.
[3 marks]
7.
A music app maps volume (x) to perceived loudness (f(x)) with f(x) = 10x. Find the inverse function to determine the volume from loudness.
[3 marks]
8.
A sound wave's frequency f (Hz) relates to wavelength λ (meters) by f(λ) = 340 / λ. Write the inverse function to find wavelength from frequency.
[3 marks]
9.
Identify and correct the mistake in this inverse function: f⁻¹(x) = (x + 4) / 2, given that the original function is f(x) = 2x - 4.
[4 marks]
10.
A sound technician measures the frequency of a sound wave with the function f(x) = 5000 / x, where x is the wavelength. If the measured frequency is 1000 Hz, what is the wavelength? Show your calculation.
