How to find the inverse of one-to-one function bellow?

f(x)=3x-5

The graph of that function is like this:





Replace  by 



Interchange x and y



Solve for y







Replace  by 



Now plot that on the same graph:



Notice that the inverse is the reflection of the
original line in the "identity" line which has equation
, called the identity line.  That's
the green dotted line below:
