Answer:  Yes,  [tex]\bold{f^{-1}(x)=\dfrac{x+6}{3}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 3x - 6    is a line so it is a function  because

                      it passes the vertical line test

                              and the horizontal line test

To find the inverse, swap the x's and y's and solve for y

[tex]y=3x-6\\\\\\\text{Swap the x's and y's:}\qquad x=3y-6\\\\\text{Add 6 to both sides:}\qquad x+6=3y\\\\\text{Divide both sides by 3:}\qquad \dfrac{x+6}{3}=y[/tex]
