Answer: f⁻¹(x)=2x-6

Explanation:

To find the inverse of an equation, you replace y with x and x with y. Then, you solve for y.

y=1/2x+3 [replace y with x and x with y]

x=1/2y+3 [subtract both sides by 3]

x-3=1/2y [multiply both sides by 2]

y=2(x-3) [distribute]

y=2x-6

Now, we know the inverse function is f⁻¹(x)=2x-6.
