Solution Steps

Step 1: Finding the Inverse Function

For a linear function $f(x) = 4x + 7$, solving $y = 4x + 7$ for $x$ gives us $x = \frac{y-7}{4}$.

Hence, $f^{-1}(x) = \frac{x-7}{4}$, which simplifies to ^f^{-1}(x) = (x - 7) / 4^.

Step 2: Verification

Substituting $f^{-1}(x)$ into $f(x)$, we get $f(f^{-1}(x)) = 4*((x - 7) / 4) + 7 = x$, which simplifies to $x$.

Similarly, substituting $f(x)$ into $f^{-1}(x)$, we get $f^{-1}(f(x)) = (f(x) - 7) / 4 = x$, which also simplifies to $x$.

Final Answer:

The inverse function is ^f^{-1}(x) = (x - 7) / 4^.
