Answer

$T^{-1}(x_1,x_2)=(3.5x_1+4x_2, 2.5x_1+3x_2)$

Work Step by Step

The standard matrix of T is $\begin{bmatrix} T(e1)&T(e_2)\\ \end{bmatrix} $ where $T(e1)=\begin{bmatrix} 6\\-5\\ \end{bmatrix}$ and $T(e2)=\begin{bmatrix} -8\\7\\ \end{bmatrix}$ The standard matrix of T is $\begin{bmatrix} 6&-8\\-5&7\\ \end{bmatrix} $ and its determinant is $2$, so its inverse is $\begin{bmatrix} 3.5&4\\2.5&3\\ \end{bmatrix} $ $T^{-1}(x_1,x_2)=(3.5x_1+4x_2, 2.5x_1+3x_2)$
