Solution

Here the function f : R → R is defined as f (x) = 4x + 5 = y (say). Then

4x = y – 5 or x = `(y - 5)/4`.

This leads to a function g: R → R defined as

g(y) = `(y - 5)/4`.

Therefore, (gof) (x) = g(f(x) = g(4x + 5)

= `(4x + 5 - 5)/4`

= x

or

gof = IR

Similarly (fog) (y) = f(g(y))

= `f((y - 5)/4)`

= `4((y - 5)/4) + 5`

= y

or

fog = IR

Hence f is invertible and f-1 = g which is given by `f^-1 (x) = (x - 5)/4`
