Answer:


\huge\boxed{\sf f^(-1)(x)=(x)/(2) + 1}

Explanation:

Given function:

f(x) = 2(x - 1)

Put f(x) = y

y = 2(x - 1)

Exchange x and y

x = 2(y - 1)

Now, solve for y:

x = 2(y - 1)

Divide both sides by 2


\displaystyle (x)/(2) = y - 1

Add 1 to both sides


\displaystyle (x)/(2) + 1 = y

Put y = f⁻¹(x)


\displaystyle (x)/(2) + 1 = f^(-1)(x)

OR


\displaystyle f^(-1)(x)=(x)/(2) + 1 \\\\\rule[225]{225}{2}
