\n" ); document.write( "to find the inverse of $\"f%28x%29=5-2x\"$ , recall that $\"f%28x%29=y\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"y=5-2x\"$ ........swap variables\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=5-2y\"$ ........solve for $\"y\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"2y=5-x\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"y=5%2F2-%281%2F2%29x\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " the inverse is $\"f\"$ ' $\"%28x%29=-%281%2F2%29x%2B5%2F2\"$
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
