ANSWER


f^(-1)(x)\text{ = }(x)/(5)\text{ - 1}

Step-by-step explanation

I believe the question means:


f^(-1)(x)

This is called the Inverse function.

To do this, first we replace f(x) with y:


y\text{ = 5x + 5}

Now, we replace every y with x and vice versa:


*\text{ = 5y + 5}

Now, make y subject of formula:


\begin{gathered} \text{ x = 5y + 5} \\ x\text{ - 5 = 5y} \\ 5y\text{ = x - 5} \\ (5y)/(5)=\text{ }(x)/(5)-\text{ }(5)/(5) \\ y\text{ = }(x)/(5)\text{ -1} \\ f^(-1)(x)\text{ = }(x)/(5)\text{ - 1} \end{gathered}

That is the inverse function
