Given the function

\[
f(x) = \frac{x^{1/3}}{5} + 7,
\]

we want to find the inverse function \( f^{-1}(x) \).

To find the inverse, we first rewrite the equation as:

\[
y = \frac{x^{1/3}}{5} + 7.
\]

To find \( f^{-1}(x) \), we will follow these steps:

1. Replace \( f(x) \) with \( y \):
\[
y = \frac{x^{1/3}}{5} + 7.
\]

2. Solve for \( x \) in terms of \( y \):
Start by isolating the term with \( x \):

\[
y - 7 = \frac{x^{1/3}}{5}.
\]

Next, multiply both sides by 5:

\[
5(y - 7) = x^{1/3}.
\]

3. Now, cube both sides to solve for \( x \):

\[
x = \left(5(y - 7)\right)^3.
\]

4. To express the inverse function, replace \( y \) back with \( x \):

\[
f^{-1}(x) = \left(5(x - 7)\right)^3.
\]

Now let's look at the multiple-choice answers provided:

1. \( f^{-1}(x) = (5x - 7)^3 \)
2. \( f^{-1}(x) = (5x)^3 - 7 \)
3. \( f^{-1}(x) = (5(x - 7))^3 \)
4. \( f^{-1}(x) = 5(x - 7)^3 \)

The correct answer is:

\[
f^{-1}(x) = (5(x - 7))^3.
\]

So, the answer is:

**\( f^{-1}(x) = (5(x - 7))^3 \)**.
