Answer:


f^(-1)(x)=(x+10)/(2)

Explanation:

We ate asked to find the inverse of the given function
f(x)=2x-10.

To find the inverse of function, first of all we will replace
f(x)=y and then interchange x and y values as shown below:


y=2x-10

Inter-change x and y variables:


x=2y-10

Solve for y using opposite operations:


x+10=2y-10+10


x+10=2y

Switch sides:


2y=x+10

Divide both sides by 2:


(2y)/(2)=(x+10)/(2)


y=(x+10)/(2)

We will inverse function notation
f^(-1)(x) to write the inverse function as:


f^(-1)(x)=(x+10)/(2)

Therefore, our required inverse function would be
f^(-1)(x)=(x+10)/(2).
