Step 1:

The function is image.

The function is a linear function with positive slope,hence it is one-to-one function.

Therefore, the inverse of the function exist.

Find the inverse of the function.

Consider image and solve in terms of .

image

Interchange and .

image

Replace image.

image

Since, Substitute image in inverse function then it is represents always negative.

Therefore, the domain of the function is image and range is image.

Solution:
The inverse of image is image.

The domain of the function is image and range is image.
