h%28x%29=-3x%2B6 is a linear function,
so its graph is a straight line.
The inverse of a function, if it exists,
is another function whose graph is a "mirror" image of the original function.
Linear functions that are not constant have inverses, and the inverses are also linear functions.
graph%28300%2C300%2C-2%2C8%2C-2%2C8%2C-3x%2B6%2C%286-x%29%2F3%2Cx%29 shows the graph of the original function in red, and the graph of the inverse in green.
Each graph is the other one reflected over the blue diagonal line y=x .
That blue line is always the mirror between any function and its inverse
