Answer 1

To find the inverse function \( f^{-1}(x) \) for the given function \( f(x) = \frac{\sqrt[3]{x} - 7}{5} \), we need to follow these steps:

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

2. Swap \( x \) and \( y \): \[ x = \frac{\sqrt[3]{y} - 7}{5} \]

3. Solve for \( y \):

   • Multiply both sides by 5: \[ 5x = \sqrt[3]{y} - 7 \]
   • Add 7 to both sides: \[ 5x + 7 = \sqrt[3]{y} \]
   • Cube both sides: \[ (5x + 7)^3 = y \]

4. Write the inverse function: \[ f^{-1}(x) = (5x + 7)^3 \]

Now, let's check the available options:

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

The correct option is: \[ f^{-1}(x) = (5x + 7)^3 \] which corresponds to Option 4.
