Remark
The reason you are not getting many replies to this is an uncertainty about f(x). We do not know if you mean f(x) = 2/(x - 6) or f(x) = (2/x) - 6. We'll try it both ways.
First Way f(x) = 2/(x - 6)
f(x = y = 2/(x - 6) Interchange x and y
x = 2 / (y - 6) Multiply both sides by y - 6
x(y - 6) = 2 Divide by x
y - 6 = 2/x Add 6 to both sides.
y = 2/x + 6 Which is close to g(x) but it is not the same thing, even if you use x as a common denominator. That would give you
Second Way: f(x) = (2/x) - 6
f(x) = y = (2/x) - 6 Interchange x and y
x = (2/y) - 6 Add 6 to both sides
x + 6 = 2/y Multiply both sides by y
y(x + 6) = 2 Divide by sides by (x + 6)
y = 2/(x + 6)
Comment
These do not look anything alike so g(x) and f(x) are not inverses.

Answer:
240 ft by 480 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Area is maximized when the long side is half the total length of the fence. That makes the short side (out from the river) be half the length of the long side.
The fenced field dimensions are 240 feet by 480 feet.
__
You can let x represent the length of the long side. Then the length of the short side is half the remaining fence: (960 -x)/2.
The total area is the product of these dimensions:
A = x(960 -x)/2
We note that this is the equation of a parabola with zeros at x=0 and x=960. The maximum will be found on the line of symmetry, halfway between the zeros. That is at x = (0 +960)/2 = 480.
The area is maximized for a long-side dimension of 480 feet. The short sides are 240 feet.
