Answer

The inverse of $f$ is $g(x)=\frac{x}{6}$.

Work Step by Step

$f(x)=6x$ Set $y=f(x)$. Then $y=6x$ Switching $x$ and $y$ in the equation, we have $x=6y$ Divide by $6$ on both sides to get $\frac{x}{6}=y$ The inverse of $f$ is $g(x)=\frac{x}{6}$. The graphs of the function and its inverse are shown in the attachment.
