Let f be the function defined by f(x)=2x+ex. If g(x)=f−1x for all x and the point (0,1) is on the graph of
f, what is the value of g′(1) ?
Check the previous question's explanation for how we can derive the relationship between inverse functions.
g′(x)=f′(g(x))1
Since (0,1) exists on the graph of f, (1,0) must exist on g.
f(x)=2x+ex
f′(x)=2+ex
Putting it all together:
g′(1)=f′(g(1))1
g′(1)=f′(0)1
g′(1)=31
