Solution
The question displayed in the image is asking to find the inverse function of:
To find the inverse function, , follow these steps:
-
Replace with :
-
Swap and to begin solving for the inverse:
-
Solve for :
- Multiply both sides by 5 to get rid of the denominator:
- Subtract 2 from both sides:
- Divide both sides by 3:
-
Therefore, the inverse function is:
