Answer:

f'(x) = (x + 1)/15

Explanation:

f(x) = 15x -1,

Think of the term "f(x)" as a single variable, then solve for the term "x", manipulate the equation like how one would manipulate a literal equation, by inverse operations.

f(x) = 15x - 1

+1 +1

f(x) + 1 = 15x

/15 /15

(f(x) + 1)/15 = x

This means that (denote in the way one would denote an inverse of a function);

f'(x) = (x + 1)/15
