Answer:

You MUST use parentheses around denominator 8+x, or ANY denominator that consist of more than a single number of variable.

Also, don't use lower case and upper case interchangeably.

In algebra, x and X are different, as are y and Y.

f(x) = y = 3x/(8+x)

Switch x and y, solve for y:

x = 3y/(8+y)

x(8+y) = 3y

8x+xy = 3y

8x = 3y−xy

8x = y(3−x)

y = f⁻¹(x) = 8x/(3−x)

I hope this helps, love
