Answer:

The inverse of h(x) is
(5x-6)/(2)

Explanation:

* Lets explain how to make the inverse of a function

- To find the inverse of a function we switch x and y and then solve

for new y

- You can make it with these steps

# write g(x) = y

# switch x and y

# solve for y

# write y as
g^(-1)(x)

* Lets solve the problem


h(x)=(2x+6)/(5)

# Step 1


y=(2x+6)/(5)

# Step 2


x=(2y+6)/(5)

# Step 3


x=(2y+6)/(5)

- Multiply each side by 5

∴ 5x = 2y + 6

- Subtract 6 from both sides

∴ 5x - 6 = 2y

- Divide both sides by 2


y=(5x-6)/(2)

# Step 4


h^(-1)(x)=(5x-6)/(2)
