1. Problem Description

The problem asks us to find the inverse of the function y=4x7y = 4x - 7. We are given five options and need to determine which one represents the inverse function.

2. Solution Steps

To find the inverse of a function, we switch xx and yy and then solve for yy.
Given the function y=4x7y = 4x - 7.
First, switch xx and yy:
x=4y7x = 4y - 7
Now, solve for yy:
x+7=4yx + 7 = 4y
y=x+74y = \frac{x + 7}{4}
y=x+74y = \frac{x + 7}{4} can also be written as x=y+74x = \frac{y + 7}{4}.
Option D is x=(y+7)÷4x = (y + 7) \div 4, which is the same as x=y+74x = \frac{y + 7}{4}.

3. Final Answer

D. x=(y+7)÷4x = (y + 7) \div 4
