Show answers and working
  1. 1. -1

    Replace x with 1: 3 × 1 − 4. = -1

  2. 2. 15

    Replace x with 5: 3 × 5 + 0. = 15

  3. 3. 4

    Replace x with 2: 5 × 2 − 6. = 4

  4. 4. 27

    Replace x with 4: 5 × 4 + 7. = 27

  5. 5. 17

    Replace x with 4: 3 × 4 + 5. = 17

  6. 6. -11

    Replace x with -3: 6 × (-3) + 7. = -11

  7. 7. 26

    Replace x with 5: 4 × 5 + 6. = 26

  8. 8. 18

    Replace x with 2: 5 × 2 + 8. = 18

  9. 9. f⁻¹(x) = (x + 8) / 5

    Write y = 5x − 8 and swap x and y. Rearrange for y: y = (x + 8) / 5.

  10. 10. f⁻¹(x) = (x − 7) / 3

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.
