Replace with
y
y
y
:
To find the inverse function, we start by replacing
f
(
x
)
f(x)
f
(
x
)
with
y
y
y
:
y
=
(
5
x
)
5
9
y = (5x)^{\frac{5}{9}}
y
=
(
5
x
)
9

Interchange
x
x
x
and
y
y
y
:
Next, we interchange
x
x
x
and
y
y
y
to solve for the new
y
y
y
, which will be the inverse function:
x
=
(
5
y
)
5
9
x = (5y)^{\frac{5}{9}}
x
=
(
5
y
)
9
5
Raise to power of
9
5
\frac{9}{5}
5
9
:
Now, we raise both sides of the equation to the power of
9
5
\frac{9}{5}
5
9
to eliminate the exponent on the right side:
\newline
x
9
5
=
5
y
x^{\frac{9}{5}} = 5y
x
5
9
=
5
y
Divide by
5
5
5
:
We then divide both sides by
5
5
5
to solve for
y
y
y
:
y
=
x
(
9
/
5
)
5
y = \frac{x^{(9/5)}}{5}
y
=

x
(
9/5
)
Replace with
f
−
1
(
x
)
f^{-1}(x)
f
−
1
(
x

:
Finally, we replace
y
y
y
with
f
−
1
(
x
)
f^{-1}(x)
f
−

(
