Remember , inverse functions do the opposite things in the opposite order.

Here's what happened to x here :

  1. First , it's been multiplied by 7 .
  2. Then , 2 has been added to it .

We can easily find the inverse of any function by following these steps :

  1. Set the function equal to y as follows :

f(x)=7x+2

y=7x+2

2. Now , switch y and x places :

x=7y+2

3. Solve for y .

First , subtract 2 on both sides :

x-2=7y

Divide by 7 on both sides :


\text{y=$\displaystyle(x-2)/(7)$}}

We've found the inverse function of f(x)=7x+2.

Answer:


(x - 2)/(7)

Explanation:


f(x) = 7x + 2


let \: \: f(x) = y


7x + 2 = y


7x = y - 2


x = (y - 2)/(7)


{f}^( - 1) (x) = (x - 2)/(7)
