Having a massive brain fart right now. can someone find the inverse of f(x)=x+4/x-3 then solve for y? I'm stuck at solving for y. the answer is f-1(x)=3x+4/x-1. but how do you get there? much appreciated. any answer after about 8:30 PST wont do me any good because I'll be taking an exam at that time. LOL.

Given f(x)=3x+4
1. Is f(x) a function? Why or why not?
Yes, it is a function because for each value of "x"
there is only one value of "y"---the y will be 3 times
the x value plus 4.
--------------
2. Is f -1(x) a function? Why or why not?
Yes it is. The inverse function can be found as follows:

y=3x+4
Interchange x and y to get:
x=3y+4
Solve for y to get:
y=(1/3)x-(4/3)
This is a function for the same reasons given
in part #1.
