Expert Solution
Step 1

Here given function as

fx=2x1+2x

Need to find the inverse function and the domain of the inverse function.

Step 2

(a)

fx=2x1+2x=ysay

Then

2x=1+2xy2x=y+2xy2x1-y=y2x=y1-ylog22x=log2y1-y       By taking log on both sidesx=log2y1-y                   logaax=x

replace xby f-1x and y by x, then

f-1x=log2x1-x
