Solution Steps

Step 1: Finding the Inverse Function

To find the inverse of the function \( f(x) = \frac{7x}{8x - 1} \), we set \( y = f(x) \) and solve for \( x \) in terms of \( y \). The resulting inverse function is given by: \[ f^{-1}(x) = \frac{y}{8y - 7} \]

Step 2: Determining the Domain of \( f^{-1} \)

The domain of the inverse function \( f^{-1} \) corresponds to the range of the original function \( f(x) \). The range of \( f(x) \) is all real numbers except \( \frac{7}{8} \). Therefore, the domain of \( f^{-1} \) is: \[ \text{Domain of } f^{-1}: (-\infty, \frac{7}{8}) \cup (\frac{7}{8}, \infty) \]

Step 3: Determining the Range of \( f^{-1} \)

The range of the inverse function \( f^{-1} \) corresponds to the domain of the original function \( f(x) \). The domain of \( f(x) \) is all real numbers except \( \frac{1}{8} \). Therefore, the range of \( f^{-1} \) is: \[ \text{Range of } f^{-1}: (-\infty, \frac{1}{8}) \cup (\frac{1}{8}, \infty) \]

Final Answer

\[ f^{-1}(x) = \frac{y}{8y - 7} \] \[ \text{Domain of } f^{-1}: (-\infty, \frac{7}{8}) \cup (\frac{7}{8}, \infty) \] \[ \text{Range of } f^{-1}: (-\infty, \frac{1}{8}) \cup (\frac{1}{8}, \infty) \]
