Solution 1
f (x) = `(4x + 3)/(6x - 4) `
`f (f (x)) = (4 f(x) + 3)/(6 f(x) - 4)`
`f(f(x))= (4 ((4x + 3)/(6x - 4))+3)/(6((4x + 3)/(6x - 4))-4)`
` fof (x) = (((16x + 12 + 18x - 12)/(6x -4)))/(((24x + 18 - 24 x + 16)/(6x - 4)))`
` fof (x) = (34x)/34`
fof (x) = x
For inversere y = `(4x + 3)/(6x - 4)`
6xy – 4y = 4x + 3
6 xy – 4x = 4y + 3
x(6y – 4) = 4y + 3
`x = (4y + 3)/(6y - 4) ⇒ y = (4x + 3)/(6x - 4)`
`⇒ f^(-1) (x) = (4x + 3)/(6x - 4)`
Solution 2
`f(x) = (4x +3)/(6x -4) x ≠ 2/3`
`f "of"(x) = (4((4x +3)/(6x - 4))+ 3)/(6((4x +3)/(6x - 4)) - 4)`
= `(16x + 12 + 18x - 12)/(24x + 18 - 24x + 16)`
= `(34x)/(34) = x`
Therefore, fof (x) = x, for all `x ≠ 2/3`
⇒ fof = I
Hence, the given function f is invertible and the inverse of f is itself.
`y = (4x + 3)/(6x - 4)`
`6xy - 4y = 4x +3`
`6xy - 4y = 4y +3`
`x = (4y + 3)/(6y -4)`
∴ `f(x) = (4x +3)/(6x - 4)`
Solution 3
fof (x) = f(f(x))
= `f((4x + 3)/(6x - 4))`
= `(4((4x + 3)/(6x - 4)) + 3)/(6((4x + 3)/(6x - 4)) - 4)`
= `(16x + 12 + 18x - 12)/(24x + 18 - 24x + 16)`
= `(34x)/34`
= x
Now, suppose `y = (4x + 3)/(6x - 4)`
⇒ 6xy – 4y = 4x + 3
⇒ 6xy – 4x = 3 + 4y
⇒ x(6y – 4) = 3 + 4y
⇒ `x = (3 + 4y)/(6y - 4)`
Therefore, `f^-1 = (3 + 4y)/(6y - 4)`
So here inverse of f is equal to function f.
