We have the function:
f(x) = 3x / (x + 7)
(a)
We rename the function as: f(x) = y
Then:
y = 3x / (x + 7)
Taking the inverse:
1/y = (x + 7) / 3x
1/y = x/3x + 7/3x
1/y = 1/3 + 7/3x
Solving for x:
1/y - 1/3 = 7/3x
1/x = 3/7y - 1/7 = (3 - y) / 7y
Taking the inverse:
x = 7y / (3 - y)
Then, the inverse function of f is:
f ⁻¹(x) = 7x / (3 - x)
(b)
We know that the division by 0 is undefined in real numbers. From the function f, we have a division by 0 if x = -7, so the domain should be:
Dom_f = {x| x ≠ -7}
For the range, we know that x = -7 is a vertical asymptote of the function f, so this means that the graph never passes across x = -7, but it tends to it on infinity. Then, the range of f is:
Ran_f = All the real numbers
For f ⁻¹(x), we see that for x = 3 there is a division by 0, so this is an asymptote of the function. Then, the domain of f ⁻¹ is:
Dom_f ⁻¹ = {x| x ≠ 3}
Again, as there is an asymptote, the range is:
Ran_f ⁻¹ = All the real numbers

Answer:
25. 0.0036 26. 1/64
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope form: y = mx + b
We have:
3x - 6y - 2 = 0 |add 6y to both sides
3x - 2 = 6y |divide both sides by 6
3x/6 - 2/6 = 6y/6
x/2 - 1/3 = y
y = 1/2 x - 1/3
