Answer

$f^{-1}(x)=tan^{-1}(\frac{x+3}{2}) $ range of $f(x)$: $(-\infty, \infty)$ domain and range of $f^{-1}(x)$: $(-\infty, \infty)$ and $[-\frac{\pi}{2}, \frac{\pi}{2}]$

Work Step by Step

Step 1. $f(x)=2tan(x)-3 \longrightarrow y=2tan(x)-3 \longrightarrow x=2tan(y)-3 \longrightarrow y=tan^{-1}(\frac{x+3}{2}) \longrightarrow f^{-1}(x)=tan^{-1}(\frac{x+3}{2}) $ Step 2. We can find the domain and range of $f(x)$: $[-\frac{\pi}{2}, \frac{\pi}{2}]$ and $(-\infty, \infty)$ Step 3. We can find the domain and range of $f^{-1}(x)$: $(-\infty, \infty)$ and $[-\frac{\pi}{2}, \frac{\pi}{2}]$
