Answer:

<h2>2</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given g(x)=5x-4 and g(x)=f^{-1}(x)-3

Substituting g(x) =  5x-4 into the second equation we have;

5x-4 =  f^{-1}(x)-3

f^{-1}(x) = 5x-4+3

f^{-1}(x) = 5x-1

To get f(x), let us first make y to be equal  f^{-1}(x)

y = 5x-1

expressing x in terms of y to get f(x), we have;

5x = y+1

x = y/5+1/5

replacing y with x, we will have;

y = x/5 + 1/5

F(x) = x/5 + 1/5

Comparing x/5 + 1/5 with ax+b, a = 1/5 and b = 1/5

5a + 5b = 5(1/5)+ 5(1/5)

5a+5b = 1+1

5a+5b = 2
