Answer:

Hence, g(x) is inverse of f(x)

Explanation:

The provided function are f(x)=5x-25 and
g(x)=(1)/(5)x+5

To check g(x) is the inverse of f(x)

Plug the formula for g(x) into every instance of "x" in the formula for f (x):

(fog)(x) = f(g(x))


= 5((1)/(5)x+5)-25

= x+25-25

= x

Now, plug the formula for f (x) into every instance of "x" in the formula for g(x) :

(gof)(x) = g(f(x))

=
(1)/(5)x+5

=
(1)/(5)(5x-25)+5

= x - 5 + 5

= x

Both ways we get "x"

So, both functions are inverse of each other.

Hence, g(x) is inverse of f(x) .
