the inverse graph should be on the other side of the Y=X line therefore the inverse graph can be found by swapping the X coordinates and Y coordinates so the inverse graph should go through the points (-2,0) and (0,5)

Answer:

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

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the equation of the graph

Let

\(A(0,-2), B(5,0)\)

The slope of the linear equation is equal to

\(m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}\)

substitute the values

\(m=\frac{0+2}{5-0}\)

\(m=\frac{2}{5}\)

The equation of the line into point-slope form is equal to

\(y-y1=m(x-x1)\)

substitute

\(y-0=\frac{2}{5}(x-5)\)

\(y=\frac{2}{5}x-2\) --------> linear equation of the graph

Step 2

Find the inverse function

Exchanges the variables x for y and y for x

\(x=\frac{2}{5}y-2\)

Isolate the variable y

\(y=\frac{5}{2}x+5\)

Let

\(f^{-1}(x)=y\)

\(f^{-1}(x)=\frac{5}{2}x+5\) --------> inverse of the function of the graph
