Answer:

C. f^-1(x) = (∛(x+1))/4

Explanation:

The inverse function can be found by solving x = f(y) for y.


f(y)=x\\\\64y^3-1=x\\\\64y^3=x+1 \qquad\text{add1}\\\\4y=\sqrt[3]{x+1} \qquad\text{cube root}\\\\y=\frac{\sqrt[3]{x+1}}{4} \qquad\text{divide by 4}\\\\\boxed{f^(-1)(x)=\frac{\sqrt[3]{x+1}}{4}}
