Answer

$\frac{1}{17}$

Work Step by Step

$f(x)$ = $\frac{1}{27}$($x^{5}+2x^{3})$, $a$ = -$11$ $\frac{1}{27}$($x^{5}+2x^{3})$ = -$11$ $x^{5}+2x^{3}+11$ = $0$ $(x+3)(x^{4}-3x^{3}+11x^{2}-33x+99)$ = $0$ $x$ = -$3$ $f(-3)$ = -$11$ $so$ $f^{-1}(-11)$ = -$3$ $(f^{-1})$'$(-11)$ = $\frac{1}{f'(f^{-1}(-11))}$ = $\frac{1}{f'(-3)}$ $f'(x)$ = $\frac{5x^{4}}{27}$ + $\frac{6x^{2}}{27}$ $f'(-3)$ = $\frac{5(-3)^{4}}{27}$ + $\frac{6(-3)^{2}}{27}$ = $15$ + $2$ = $17$ $so$ $(f^{-1})$'$(-11)$ = $\frac{1}{f'(-3)}$ = $\frac{1}{17}$
