The video tutorial explains how to find the inverse of a function, specifically a rational function. It begins with an introduction to the function f(x) = (2x + 5) / (4 - 3x) and the concept of an inverse function. The tutorial then covers the domain and range of functions and how an inverse function works. The main focus is on algebraic manipulation to find the inverse, swapping x and y, and solving for y. The video concludes with the final expression of the inverse function and an alternative way to express it.

What is the initial function f(x) given in the video?

• f(x) = 2x + 5 / (4 - 3x)

• f(x) = 4x + 3 / (5 - 2x)

• f(x) = 3x + 4 / (2 - 5x)

• f(x) = 5x + 2 / (3 - 4x)
