Given function: f(x) = (3x+5)/7

y = f(x) so it's the same as y = (3x+5)/7

Swap every copy of x and y to get x = (3y+5)/7

Solve for y to get....
x = (3y+5)/7
7x = 7*(3y+5)/7
7x = 3y+5
7x-5 = 3y+5-5
7x-5 = 3y
3y = 7x-5
3y/3 = (7x-5)/3
y = (7x-5)/3

So the inverse function is f^(-1)(x) = (7x-5)/3

Answer is choice A

Answer:

Option A. f−1(x) = The quantity of seven x minus five, over three

Explanation:

we know that

The given function is equal to


f(x) = (3x+5)/7

Let


y=f(x)


y= (3x+5)/7

step 1

Exchange the variables x for y and y for x


x= (3y+5)/7

step 2

Isolate the variable y


7x= (3y+5)


3y=7x-5


y=(7x-5)/3

Let


f^(-1)(x)=y


f^(-1)(x)=(7x-5)/3
