  1. A 7
  2. B 1
  3. C 4
  4. D 8
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 4

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

(C)
We have \(f(x)=7 x+8=y\)...(let)
\(\therefore \mathrm{x}=\frac{\mathrm{y}-8}{7} \Rightarrow \mathrm{f}^{-1}(\mathrm{y})=\frac{\mathrm{y}-8}{7}\) \(\therefore \mathrm{f}^{-1}(\mathrm{x})=\frac{\mathrm{x}-8}{7} \Rightarrow \mathrm{f}^{-1}(12)=\frac{12-8}{7}=\frac{4}{7} \Rightarrow \mathrm{k}=4\)
