Substitute f^-1(x) for x
Use the property f(f^-1(x)) = x
Solve for f^-1(x)

Explanation:

Given: f(x) = root3(x/7) -9

Substitute f^-1(x) for every x:

f(f^-1(x)) = root3(f^-1(x)/7) -9

Use the property f(f^-1(x)) =x:

x= root3(f^-1(x)/7) -9

Add 9 to both sides:

x+9= root3(f^-1(x)/7)

Cube both sides:

(x+9)^3= f^-1(x)/7

Multipy both sides by 7:

f^-1(x)=7(x+9)^3
