document.write( "hey so here's how you do it\r<BR>\n" );
document.write( "\n" );
document.write( "1. substitute \"y\" for f(x) so now the equation will be\r<BR>\n" );
document.write( "\n" );
document.write( "y=-1/5x+8  now, switch the y and the x. the equation will now be\r<BR>\n" );
document.write( "\n" );
document.write( "x=-1/5y+8  since you want to leave the y all by itself,  x-8=-1/5y\r<BR>\n" );
document.write( "\n" );
document.write( "divide everything by -1/5 and the equation will become x-8/-.2=y\r<BR>\n" );
document.write( "\n" );
document.write( "now rewrite this in the proper form as f^-1=x-8/-.2\r<BR>\n" );
document.write( "\n" );
