Determine the inverse of y = (2x - 1)/(2x + 1)

We'll solve this equation y=(2x-1)/(2x+1) for x,
multiplying both sides by (2x+1):


2xy+y =
(2x-1)


We'll move all terms containing x, to the left side
and all terms in y, to the right side:


2xy-2x =
-1-y


We'll factorizeby
2x:


2x(y-1) = -1-y


We'll
divide by 2(y-1)


x =
-(1+y)/2(y-1)


Now, we'll interchange x and
y:


y = -(1+x)/2(x-1)


So, the
inverse function is:


[f(x)]^(-1) =
-(1+x)/2(x-1)

Comment on the setting and character of "The Fall of the House of Usher."How does setting act as a character?

Excellent observation, as it identifies how the settings of Poe's stories reflect the characters of their protagonists. Whet...
