A function is defined as f(x) = 3x + 4.
The inverse of a function “undoes” the function.
------------------------
f does the following to its input:
1st: multiplies by 3
2nd: adds 4
------------------------------
Its inverse must "undo" what f has done:
1st: it must subtract 4
2nd: it must then divide by 3
--
So the inverse looks like g(x) = (x-4)/3
