f(x) =
4\sqrt[3]{x} - 8

Let's replace f(x) with y

y =
4\sqrt[3]{x} - 8

Switch the x and y

x =
4\sqrt[3]{y} - 8

Now, let's solve for y. Start off by adding 8 to both sides.

x + 8 =
4\sqrt[3]{y}

Divide both sides by 4


(x)/(4) + 2 =
\sqrt[3]{y}

Take each side by the power of 3


((x)/(4) + 2)^(3) = y

Now, let's replace y with
f^(-1)(x)


f^(-1)(x) =
((x)/(4) + 2)^(3) is the inverse
