We are given the following function:


f(x)=(x-3)/(2)

We are asked to determine:


f^(-1)(x)

This is called the inverse function.

To do that we will first switch the value of the variables f(x) and "x" as follows:


x=(f(x)-3)/(2)

Now, we will solve for f(x). To do that we will multiply both sides by 2:


2x=f(x)-3

Now we add 3:


2x+3=f(x)

This is the inverse, therefore, we change:


f(x)=f^(-1)(x)

Therefore, we have:


f^(-1)(x)=2x+3
