f(x) = 5(x +4) - 6

let y = f(x)

y = 5x +20 - 6    solving for x.

y = 5x + 14

y - 14 = 5x

5x = y - 14

x = (y - 14)/5

Recall   f(x) = y.   Implies  x = f⁻¹(y)

x = (y - 14)/5

f⁻¹(y) = (y - 14)/5

So as well:

f⁻¹(x) = (x - 14)/5            when x = 19

f⁻¹(19) = (19 - 14)/5  = 5/5

f⁻¹(19) = 1
