Solution

To find the inverse function gโˆ’1(x) g^{-1}(x) , let's follow the steps outlined:

1. Break Down the Problem

We are given the function: g(x)=xx+1 g(x) = \frac{x}{x + 1} We need to determine its inverse, gโˆ’1(x) g^{-1}(x) .

2. Relevant Concepts

To find the inverse of a function, we typically do the following:

  • Swap x x and y y in the equation.
  • Solve for y y .

3. Analysis and Detail

  1. Start with the equation: y=g(x)=xx+1 y = g(x) = \frac{x}{x + 1}

  2. Swap x x and y y : x=yy+1 x = \frac{y}{y + 1}

  3. Multiply both sides by (y+1) (y + 1) to eliminate the fraction: x(y+1)=y x(y + 1) = y xy+x=y xy + x = y

  4. Rearranging gives: xyโˆ’y=โˆ’x xy - y = -x y(xโˆ’1)=โˆ’x y(x - 1) = -x

  5. Finally, solve for y y : y=โˆ’xxโˆ’1 y = \frac{-x}{x - 1} This simplifies to: y=x1โˆ’x y = \frac{x}{1 - x}

4. Verify and Summarize

Thus, the inverse function is: gโˆ’1(x)=x1โˆ’x g^{-1}(x) = \frac{x}{1 - x}

Final Answer

The inverse function gโˆ’1(x) g^{-1}(x) is: x1โˆ’x \frac{x}{1 - x} This corresponds to option C.
