The standard template or outline to finding the inverse is this:
1) Replace f(x) with y
2) Swap x and y
3) Solve for y to find

So the steps look like this:


Apply step 1

Apply step 2







The domain of f(x) is
The domain and range swap when going from the original function to the inverse (since the x and y swap roles)
This means the range of the inverse is and it further means we'll focus on the positive version of the square root only. We won't have "plus/minus".

Answer: The inverse is
