Basic Idea:

Step 1) Replace f(x) with y
Step 2) Swap x and y
Step 3) Solve for y

Applying step 1

Applying step 2

Now the remainder of the work shown below is doing step 3 (solving for y)

Finally, we replace 'y' with the inverse function symbol to be as formal as possible. The final answer is

$f^{-1}(x) = \frac{x-11}{6}$
