Answer:


{g}^( - 1) (x) = - (5)/(2) x - 5

Explanation:

We want to find the inverse of


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

Let


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

We interchange x and y to get:


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

We now solve for y to obtain:


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


5x = - 2y - 10

Add 10 to both sides to get:


5x + 10 = - 2y

Divide through by -2


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

Therefore


{g}^( - 1) (x) = - (5)/(2) x - 5
