Answer:

y = - 2x + 17

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = - 2, then

y = - 2x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (6, 5) into the partial equation

5 = - 12 + c ⇒ c = 5 + 12 = 17

y = - 2x + 17 ← equation of line

Given:

The function is:

$f(x)=-2x+5$

To find:

The inverse of the given function, then draw the graphs of function and its inverse.

Solution:

We have,

$f(x)=-2x+5$

Step 1: Substitute $f(x)=y$ .

$y=-2x+5$

Step 2: Interchange x and y.

$x=-2y+5$

Step 3: Isolate variable y.

$2y=5-x$

$y=\dfrac{5-x}{2}$

Step 4: Substitute $y=g(x)$ .

$g(x)=\dfrac{5-x}{2}$

Hence, the inverse of the given function is $g(x)=\dfrac{5-x}{2}$ and the graphs of these functions are shown below.
