Solution

Break Down the Problem

  1. Identify the function: f(x)=3x3x3 f(x) = \frac{3x - 3}{x - 3} .
  2. Find the expression for the inverse function f1(x) f^{-1}(x) .
  3. Determine if any of the given options match the inverse function.

Relevant Concepts

The process for finding the inverse function involves the following steps:

  • Replacing f(x) f(x) with y y .
  • Swapping x x and y y .
  • Solving for y y to express it in terms of x x .

Analysis and Detail

  1. Start with the function: y=3x3x3 y = \frac{3x - 3}{x - 3}
  2. Swap x x and y y : x=3y3y3 x = \frac{3y - 3}{y - 3}
  3. Multiply both sides by (y3) (y - 3) : x(y3)=3y3 x(y - 3) = 3y - 3 xy3x=3y3 xy - 3x = 3y - 3
  4. Rearrange the equation: xy3y=3x3 xy - 3y = 3x - 3 y(x3)=3x3 y(x - 3) = 3x - 3
  5. Solve for y y : y=3x3x3 y = \frac{3x - 3}{x - 3} Thus, the inverse function is: f1(x)=3x3x3 f^{-1}(x) = \frac{3x - 3}{x - 3}

Verify and Summarize

To verify, we can find f(f1(x)) f(f^{-1}(x)) and check if it equals x x . After performing the calculations, we indeed find that f(f1(x))=x f(f^{-1}(x)) = x holds true.

None of the provided options match this derived expression. Therefore, we conclude:

Final Answer

D. No inverse exists.
