To find the inverse of a function, we make the independent variable the subject of the formula.

Thus, the inverse of the given function is evaluated as follows.
f(x)=-8x+4 \\ y=-8x+4 \\ -8x=y-4 \\ x= \frac{y-4}{-8}  \\ f^{-1}(x)=\frac{x-4}{-8}

From the work show, it can be seen that Talib's work is correct.

For this case what we are going to do is describe the work part by part:

1) Talib made the correct variable change in the first step.

2) Talib made a correct clearance in the second step by passing the number 4 subtracting.

3) Taliz made a correct clearance in the third step by passing the number -8 dividing.

4) Taliz made an incorrect variable change in the last step.

The correct variable change is:

f(x)^{-1}=\frac{x-4}{-8}

Answer:

Error in the last step, the correct solution is:

f(x)^{-1}=\frac{x-4}{-8}

Gradient of line,m=(17-6)/(20-0)=11/20

finding equation of line using a point (20,17)

y-17=11/20(x-20)
y-17=(11/20x)-11
y=11/20x+(17-11)
y=(11/20)*x+6
