Kendra washes windows in an office building. She washes 2/5 of the windows on Monday. She washes 1/3 of the windows on Tuesday.
Let w be the total number of windows.
Remaining number of windows to be washed = Total number of windows - Total number of windows washed on Monday and Tuesday

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.
