Show answers and working
1. 34
Replace x with 6: 5 × 6 + 4. = 34
2. -7
Replace x with -2: 2 × (-2) − 3. = -7
3. 9
Replace x with 3: 5 × 3 − 6. = 9
4. 27
Replace x with 5: 4 × 5 + 7. = 27
5. -8
Replace x with -2: 5 × (-2) + 2. = -8
6. 4
Replace x with 2: 2 × 2 + 0. = 4
7. -3
Replace x with 0: 4 × 0 − 3. = -3
8. -16
Replace x with -3: 3 × (-3) − 7. = -16
9. f⁻¹(x) = (x + 6) / 3
Write y = 3x − 6 and swap x and y. Rearrange for y: y = (x + 6) / 3.
10. f⁻¹(x) = (x − 2) / 3
Write y = 3x + 2 and swap x and y. Rearrange for y: y = (x − 2) / 3.
11. f⁻¹(x) = (x + 7) / 6
Write y = 6x − 7 and swap x and y. Rearrange for y: y = (x + 7) / 6.
12. f⁻¹(x) = (x + 7) / 2
Write y = 2x − 7 and swap x and y. Rearrange for y: y = (x + 7) / 2.
Worked examples
f(x) = 3x + 3. Find f(0).
- Replace x with 0: 3 × 0 + 3.
- = 3
- Answer: 3
f(x) = 2x + 7. Find f(1).
- Replace x with 1: 2 × 1 + 7.
- = 9
- Answer: 9
f(x) = 2x − 2. Find the inverse f⁻¹(x).
- Write y = 2x − 2 and swap x and y.
- Rearrange for y: y = (x + 2) / 2.
- Answer: f⁻¹(x) = (x + 2) / 2

Common mistakes
What learners typically get wrong, and how to fix it.
Reads f(3) as f × 3.
Correction: f(3) means 'put 3 into the rule'.
Reverses operations in the wrong order for the inverse.
Correction: Undo the last step first.
Teacher tips
- · Use function machines before notation.
Parent tips
- · Play 'guess my rule' with numbers.
Real-life applications
- · Converting temperatures, phone-plan costs.
