Answer

$f^{-1}(x)=\frac{2x+3}{5x-2}$

Work Step by Step

$f(x)=\frac{2x+3}{5x-2}$ $y=\frac{2x+3}{5x-2},$ $x=\frac{2y+3}{5y-2},$ $5xy-2x=2y+3,$ $5xy-2y=3+2x,$ $y(5x-2)=2x+3,$ $y=\frac{2x+3}{5x-2}=f^{-1}(x),$ $(f^{-1}\circ f)(x)=\frac{2(\frac{2x+3}{5x-2})+3}{5(\frac{2x+3}{5x-2})-2},$ $(f^{-1}\circ f)(x)=\frac{19x}{19}=x$
