Answer:


f^(-1) (x) =
(5x)/(x-2)

Explanation:

let y = f(x) and rearrange making x the subject

y =
(2x)/(x-5) ( multiply both sides by x - 5 )

y(x - 5) = 2x ← distribute left side

xy - 5y = 2x ( subtract 2x from both sides )

xy - 2x - 5y = 0 ( add 5y to both sides )

xy - 2x = 5y ← factor out x from each term on the left side )

x(y - 2) - 5y ← divide both sides by y - 2

x =
(5y)/(y-2)

Change y back into terms of x with x =
f^(-1) (x) , then


f^(-1) (x) =
(5x)/(x-2)
