Answer:


f^(-1)(x)=4x+20

Explanation:

Given


f(x)=(x)/(4)-5\\ \\y=(x)/(4)-5

Swap x and y and solve for y


y=(x)/(4)-5\\ \\x=(y)/(4)-5\\ \\x+5=(y)/(4)\\ \\4(x+5)=y\\\\y=4x+20

Final answer


f^(-1)(x)=4x+20

Keep in mind that we need to swap the variables because a function and its inverse are symmetrical about the line y=x. See the graph below.
