Answer:
[tex]f^{-1}[/tex](x) = [tex]\frac{x-1}{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
let y = f(x) and rearrange making x the subject, that is
y = 2x + 1 ( subtract 1 from both sides )
y - 1 = 2x ( divide both sides by 2 )
[tex]\frac{y-1}{2}[/tex] = x
Change y back into terms of x with x = [tex]f^{-1}[/tex](x) , thus
[tex]f^{-1}[/tex](x) = [tex]\frac{x-1}{2}[/tex]
