Answer:
g^(-1)(x)=(-7x-20)/(5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function:


g(x)=(-5x-20)/(7)

To find the inverse function, let us first write it as:


y=(-5x-20)/(7)

Make x the subject of the equation


\begin{gathered} -5x-20=7y \\ -5x=7y+20 \\ x=(-7y-20)/(5) \end{gathered}

Replace x by y, and y by x to obtain the inverse function


y=(-7x-20)/(5)

Where


y=g^(-1)(x)
