Is it possible to find the inverse equation of y equals x squared plus 5x minus 6?
Perhaps, using the Quadratic Equation...y=x2+5x-6Solve for x:x2+5x+(-6-y)=0Using the Quadratic Equation:x = .5 *(-5 (+-) (25 + (24+4y)).5) = -2.5 (+-) .5*(49+4y).5Substitute y for x, x for y:y = -2.5 (+-) .5*(49+4x).5
