    Answer:

    D. f⁻¹(x) = 2x + 10

    Explanation:

    The given is:

    f(x) = \frac{1}{2}x - 5

    To find the inverse, follow the below procedures:

    1- Convert f(x) to y.

    This will give:

    y = \frac{1}{2} x - 5

    2- Swap the x and y variables.

    This will give:

    x = \frac{1}{2}y - 5

    3- Solve for y.

    This will give:

    x = \frac{1}{2}y - 5\\ \\ \frac{1}{2}y = x+5\\ \\ y = 2x+10

    4- Replace the y in the above step with f⁻¹(x).

    This will give us:

    f⁻¹(x) = 2x + 10

    Hope this helps :)

    Answer:

    Choice d is the answer.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    We have given a function.

    f(x) = 1/2x-5

    We have to find the inverse of the function.

    f⁻¹(x) = ?

    Putting y = f(x) in given equation, we have

    y = 1/2x-5

    Separating x , we have

    y+5 = 1/2x

    x = 2(y+5)

    Putting x = f⁻¹(y) in above equation, we have

    f⁻¹(y) = 2y+10

    Replacing y by x , we have

    f⁻¹(x) = 2x+10 which is the answer.
