The equation we have right now is basically y = 1/2x + 3. We can switch the x and y variables. Our new equation is: x = 1/2y + 3. Next, we solve for y.

Firstly, we subtract 3 from both sides. This gives us x - 3 = 1/2y. Next, we multiply both sides by 2 to isolate y. This gives us 2(x - 3) = 1/2y. Then, we have 2x - 6 = y.

The answer is f(x) = 2x - 6
