<PRE><B>Question 175584</B>
Verify that the function g(x)=(x-2)/5 is the inverse function of f(x)=5x+2
---
Show that f[g(x)] = x and that g[f(x)]=x
-------------------------
f[g(x)] = f[(x-2)/5] = 5[(x-2)/5}+2 = x-2+2 = x
--------
g[f(x)] = g[5x+2] = (5x+2-2)/5 = 5x/5 = x
====================
